Content: If it is impaired, safety may indeed be of significant concern. In order to assess the level of the insight completely, the therapist will compare the individual’s self-assessment of functioning with the therapist’s observation, family report, and objective findings. Following this particular interview, the standardized assessments are being utilized, in order to quantify all the found out deficits objectively. These include the tests of motor, perceptual, attention, and the executive functions as well. The interpretation of both the interview and the formal test results in facilitating the generation of a problem list. A completely organized treatment plan and short- and long-term goals are being carefully formulated with the survivor’s input. When appropriate, the survivor’s family will also participate in the goal formation. In cases of brain injury, the overall evaluation and steps of treatment are closely connected. As the individual progresses, the therapist must continue to assess, analyze, and appropriately gauge the overall treatment plan. He/she does so by continually re-assessing an individual’s insight and the set of abilities across a hierarchy of tasks and by assessing the strategies that an individual uses when faced with a problem.
