Please join us for Dr. McMahon’s presentation:

“Interpreting Brain Injury Assessment in the Forensic System: From Findings to Intervention”

This three-hour training will review the interpretation and application of brain injury assessment findings within forensic settings. The first hour will provide a concise review of the Colorado Brain Injury Model and the assessment process, including screening procedures, cognitive assessment components, and the identification of cognitive strengths and weaknesses relevant to justice-involved individuals. The remainder of the training will focus on case conceptualization, translating assessment findings into clear and actionable forensic reports, and developing individualized recommendations that support competency-related services, legal system navigation, rehabilitation, and community reintegration. Through case examples, participants will explore realistic treatment expectations, intervention planning, and practical strategies for communicating brain injury-related findings to courts, legal professionals, treatment providers, and other stakeholders.

PARTICIPANT OBJECTIVES

At the conclusion of this training, participants will be able to:

• Review and describe the key components of the Colorado Brain Injury Model assessment process, including screening, cognitive assessment, and interpretation of findings within forensic populations.

• Analyze and conceptualize brain injury assessment results to identify cognitive strengths, limitations, and functional implications, and translate findings into individualized forensic recommendations and intervention strategies.
