Brain Assessment that Actually Work for the Brain Injured and their Caregivers

Brain Training for Brain Injury


Dr. Doug Jernigan is certified human behaviour consultant with the DISC system of human behaviour analysis.

Sondra Jernigan is a York University graduate and obtained a PhD. in England, Sondra went to Kansas to work at the Menninger Foundation, a private psychiatric facility.

The Drs. Jernigan are certified human behaviour consultants with the DISC system of human behaviour analysis through Personality Insights, Inc. of Atlanta, Georgia.

“DISC represents four basic behavioural styles,” Dr.J says. “Everyone has a combination of all four, but are usually strong in two, even though all 4 could be in play:

• D – Outgoing, action and task oriented.

• I – Outgoing and needs other people to interact with.

• S –Reserved and people oriented, Team player, sympathetic, likes helping others.

• C - Reserved and task oriented, detailed, list oriented, fact based

Doug and Sondra have worked with people with brain injuries and through the DISC assessment program which provides scientific research into how part of the brain is functioning, how one’s genetically based behaviour can both help or hinder recovery and can provide answers to the many questions associated with brain injury. The DISC assessment program is easily implemented into any brain recovery program.

The DISC assessment is a statistically validated system that produces knowledge that may assist a brain-injured individual in understanding and implementing new strategies for recovering brain function. The DISC system can be a vital piece of that puzzle.

The DISC assessment can also benefit anyone who deals with the brain injured person on a daily basis by providing individual training programs to help the families/care givers go from friction to function because “the whole family has the brain injury.”

Here us my testimonial as proof that this assessment works:

Jean Oostrom had a brain injury in 1997. She has been on a journey of recovery that has included many types of assessments but only recently did she come in contact with Doug and Sondra Jernigan and the DISC Assessment System. Even after 13 years, this knowledge has helped her moved forward in her recovery. The DISC assessment system taught Jean how her personality has helped and hindered her recovery, answered many questions about how her brain is functioning after the brain injury but most of all offered an individual assessment of her behaviour and the impact it has had on her recovery. I recommend this program to anyone who has suffered a brain injury and the people who deal with the brain injured persons on a day to day basis.
