Telemarketing SCAM There have been reports of unauthorised persons contacting the public purporting to be acting on behalf of Brain Injury New Zealand or one of the Regional Associations. The current hoax that has come to our attention appears to be targeting the Auckland area and has been asking for a sum of money to ‘send carers and people with a brain injury to a respite camp’. There is no such camp. We are unsure where these calls are coming from and this matter has been passed on to the police for investigation.

Home Resources Roster Contact BIC style: default contrast Quick Links Brain Injury Resource Guide Website Resource List Mission Statement What is Acquired v. Traumatic Brain Injury? An acquired brain injury (ABI) is an injury to the brain that has occurred after birth and is not hereditary, congenital or degenerative. The injury commonly results in a change in neuronal acitivey, which affects the physical integrity, the metabolic activity, or the functional ability of the cell. The term does not refer to brain injuries induced by birth trauma. Causes of Acquired Brain Injury include: Traumatic Brain Injury, Tumors, Blood Clots, Strokes (Cerebral Vascular Accidents) Seizures, toxic Exposure, Infections, Metabolic Disorders (substance abuse, lead poisoning, diabetic coma, liver and kidney disease), Neurotoxic Poisoning (airway obstruction, strangulation, cardiopulmonary arrest, carbon monoxide poisoning and drowing) and Anoxic Injury (lack of oxygen to the brain). Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is an insult to the brain, not a degenerative or congenital nature but caused by an external physical force, that may produce a diminished or altered state of consciousness, which results in an impairment of cognitive abilities and/or physical functioning. These impairments may be either temporary or permanent and cause partial or total functional disability or psychosocial maladjustment. The definition of Traumatic Brain Injury is included in the broader definition of Acquired Brain Injury. Causes of Traumatic Brain Injury include: Motor Vehicle Accidents, Falls, Gunshot Wounds, Sports Injuries, Workplace Injuries, Shaken Baby Syndrome, Child Abuse, Domestic Violence, Military Actions and other related trauma injuries.
