“Essential, Not Optional.”🚺

This year’s International Day of Action for Women’s Health theme strongly resonates with our work at BIS Services.

Women’s health should never become secondary, even during periods of complexity, crisis, or significant life change.

Following a brain injury, neurorehabilitation understandably becomes a priority. But women’s wider health needs can sometimes become overlooked, treated separately, or pushed into the background.

Women living with brain injury and neurological conditions are entitled to the same healthcare support, opportunities, and consideration as before their injury, whatever that looks like for them as individuals.

At BIS Services, an area of particular interest is sexual and reproductive health and rights after brain injury.

Relationships, intimacy, pregnancy, parenthood, and family life can all be affected following brain injury. Factors such as fatigue, cognition, emotional adjustment, insight, impulsivity, and capacity can shape experiences and support needs.

We believe neurorehabilitation should always recognise the whole person — identity, relationships, aspirations, responsibilities, and family life.

That belief led us to develop specialist training in this area, create learning opportunities through BIScussions, and host our conference exploring pregnancy and parenting after brain injury.

Women’s health is not separate from neurorehabilitation. It is part of it. 💜

In our 20th year of service, we at BIS Services are not just reflecting on our achievements to date, but looking forward to the future.

BIS Services was founded overnight with one clear goal: to ensure people living with brain injuries do not have to go without vital support.

This ethos remains ingrained in everything we do. Beyond our day to day service provision, we have always championed a commitment to raising the standard of support in neurorehabilitation.

This means improving education, open conversation, research, knowledge sharing, advocacy, communication, collaboration, consistency, adaptability, and client-centred approaches, amongst many other things.

We are proud of everything we have achieved in the past two decades, but we recognise there is still a long way to go in ensuring the best possible support for people living with brain injuries.

At BIS Services we recommit to our goal of raising industry standards. Here's to 20+ more years of excellence and continued improvement 👏

“Whether we think someone is a good fit or not doesn’t matter if the client doesn’t feel that connection.”

In brain injury rehabilitation, therapeutic relationships are one of the strongest predictors of outcomes.

Qualifications, experience and training matter. But if a client doesn’t feel understood, comfortable, or able to build trust, even the strongest CV on paper may not translate into the right support in practice.

In our latest BIScussions episode, we explore the realities of recruitment in neurorehabilitation support, from finding psychology graduates with the right balance of knowledge and soft skills, to the challenge of matching people beyond qualifications alone.

Accessibility conversations often focus on physical access.

But after brain injury, barriers can also be cognitive, sensory, emotional and invisible.

A busy environment.
Fast-paced conversations.
Information overload.
Bright lighting.
Cognitive fatigue.
Memory demand.

These factors can affect someone's ability to fully participate in work, healthcare, education, social settings and everyday life.

At BIS Services, we see every day how small adjustments can make a meaningful difference to independence, confidence and rehabilitation outcomes.

For Global Accessibility Awareness Day, we're encouraging conversation around cognitive accessibility and the barriers that are often less visible.

Brain injury survivors, family members and professionals: What accessibility adjustment has made the biggest difference to you?

It's Action for Brain Injury Week 🧠💙

This year, the theme from Headway - the brain injury association is 'We see you' -with the aim of raising awareness of the impact that isolation and loneliness can have on brain injury survivors and their families.

Headway's recent survey of brain injury survivors and carers showed that:

- 86% feel isolated from friends
- 36% feel isolated from their own families
-58% went from being outgoing and confident to shy and introverted

At BIS Services we are committed to playing our part in changing these statistics by raising the standards in brain injury support.

We’re proud to support Headway in helping raise awareness of the challenges individuals and families can face following brain injury.

To all Brain injury survivors and carers out there, we see you. 💙

We are thrilled to share this fantastic feedback we recently received from a client for both our service as a whole and for Carlos, one of our dedicated CRAs.

The client said "The time with BIS has been great, wonderful. My rehab has given me energy to regain independence."

The client also recognised the fantastic impact of their CRA, Carlos, saying "I recognise how good Carlos is from my past work. Carlos covers so much stuff, we went ahead and I have got a lot of good advice from him."

Perhaps most significantly, the client finished by saying "I have had a great experience, Carlos has gone above and beyond and the company does good note taking. BIS are the first people that I would call and I would ask for Carlos if I needed support in the future."

We are so thrilled to hear this feedback, a huge well done to Carlos and the entire BIS team involved in making this outcome possible 👏

The BIS Services team were thrilled to last week for Mental Health Awareness Week! 💚

This year’s theme fromMental Health Foundationation is 'Action'- a reminder that while awareness and conversation matter, meaningful change also comes from the actions we take every day to support ourselves and others.

At BIS Services, we see the importance of this daily. In neurorehabilitation, recovery is often built through small, consistent actions: reaching out for support, building routines, taking breaks, setting boundaries, reconnecting socially, or simply getting through a difficult day.

Working in healthcare and rehabilitation also means recognising the mental health of those who support others. Supporting people through life-changing injuries and complex challenges is incredibly rewarding, but it also requires emotional energy, resilience, and self-care.

This week, we’re encouraging everyone to take one positive action for mental health, whether that’s checking in with someone, prioritising rest, asking for support, spending time outside, or doing something that helps you feel grounded and connected 💚

Small actions really do add up.

🎩🧠 Today the BIS Services team is proudly taking part in Day! 💚

By wearing our hats today, we’re helping raise awareness of brain injury and supporting the amazing work of supporting individuals and families affected by brain injury across the UK.

Working within neurorehabilitation, we see every day just how life-changing brain injury can be. Recovery extends far beyond clinical support alone, which is why charities and support services like Headway are so important in providing ongoing support, advocacy, education, and community connection.

At BIS Services, we’re passionate about helping people rebuild confidence, independence, and quality of life through specialist cognitive rehabilitation and person-centred support and are proud to participate in such an important day💚

A huge thank you to our team (and our props!) for getting involved today!

If you’re taking part too, share your hats with us!🎩

Today, the BIS Services team is proudly for Mental Health Awareness Week 💚🧠

This year’s theme is “Action” - a reminder that while awareness and conversation matter, significant change happens when we take action, even in small ways.

Working within neurorehabilitation, we spend much of our time supporting the wellbeing and mental health of others. But we recognise that for professionals in caring roles, it can be easy to overlook our own mental health needs, minimise our struggles, or put ourselves last.

Today, we want to encourage our network to take one small positive action for mental health, whether for yourself or someone else. That action could be:

💚 Prioritising rest or sleep
💚 Checking in with a friend or colleague
💚 Reaching out to someone new
💚 Spending time with family, friends, or pets
💚 Taking a proper break
💚 Sharing helpful resources
💚 Planning something enjoyable

Mental health support doesn’t have to start with huge changes. Sometimes it begins with one conversation, one act of kindness, or one moment of self-care.

We’d love you to join us and today, and share your own positive actions or green selfies in support of Mental Health Awareness Week.

While individual actions are important, when we come together we are even more powerful. 💚 Mental Health Foundation

“We’re not a ‘bums on seats’ service.”

It’s a phrase used in our latest BIScussions podcast episode, and one that says a lot about how we approach brain injury rehabilitation at BIS Services.

In neurorehabilitation, outcomes are shaped by people. That means recruitment is about far more than filling shifts or matching availability.

It’s about:
🧠 Human connection
🧠 Trust and rapport
🧠 Emotional intelligence
🧠 Personality fit
🧠 Understanding complex needs
🧠 Finding the right support for each individual client

In this episode, our team discuss the realities of recruitment in brain injury support, from the importance of psychology graduates and soft skills, to AI in applications, wellbeing, retention, and the challenge of matching the right people to the right clients.

Because in rehabilitation, the right support makes all the difference in outcomes.
