Consistent with previous findings, geographical remoteness did not affect self-reported TBI outcomes. Older people, women and those with severe TBI had worse outcomes and required additional supports, and men require community integration assistance. An Australia-wide study with regular follow-ups is strongly recommended to support direct regional comparisons and improve service planning.
