Feasibility and efficacy of a group intervention to develop social support and resilience in family members of individuals with TBI

Clinical utility of the program in friends and families of those with TBI was evident and prevented deterioration in social support. Participant satisfaction was supported by the small attrition rate. Similar effects were associated with the brief and longer versions of the intervention, indicating that this type of intervention was carried out in an efficient manner for those who are already struggling to juggle the many needs of being a care partner.
