Recovering From A Brain Injury

Recovering from a brain injury can be a challenging experience, and often the social supports required simply do not exist. David Putrino, Director of Rehabilitation Innovation for the Mount Sinai Health System, Jenny Clarke, co-founder and CEO at the advocacy organization SameYou, and Clemency Burton-Hill, a former classical music broadcaster at WQXR who suffered a brain injury in 2020, discuss the recovery process, and what systemic changes could help patients who survived brain injuries. Former WQXR classical music presenter Clemency Burton-Hill had to re-learn how to play music, which she then used as a therapeutic part of her recovery from a brain injury.
