Non-Medical Drivers of Health and Brain Injury - A Fact Sheet for Providers

Oct 24, 2025, 10:20 AM by SCOA

Individuals with a brain injury or any other chronic condition possess a lifetime of experiences. These past experiences and the present environment can significantly affect how they cope with their brain injury and influence their overall health. Collectively, these experiences and environments are known as non-medical drivers of health. A subgroup from the Moody Galveston Conference developed a fact sheet aimed at helping healthcare providers adopt a more holistic approach to treatment. This ensures that they consider factors beyond just the brain injury itself.

Both English and Spanish versions of the fact sheet are available and include specific guidance and resources. We encourage you to help distribute these valuable resources within your networks.
