Group and individual sessions not only address the specific and holistic needs of the individual, but also, through peer interactions, help to develop an awareness of the impact of brain injury on a person's life course. Every activity throughout the day, including productive use of free time, is designed to further each individual's progress toward discharge and the natural reintegration into the home and community. The CCS Optimal Environments residential NeuroRehabilitation Program is unique in its ability to integrate traditional interventions, such as physical, occupational and speech therapies, into functional activities in a community-based, active treatment model. This model, in conjunction with case management, medical management, and neuropsychological approaches, allows more rapid progress toward community integration and return to the home community to access local resources as needed. The NeuroRehabilitation team works in partnership with the individual with an acquired brain injury, each family, and each funding sponsor to set and achieve outcomes that are targeted to maximize the participant's independence.
Goals are as different as each person who enters the program.
The team identifies those results which are going to make a difference, and develops a plan which takes into account the priorities for rehabilitation, the anticipated length of stay, and the outcomes that are desired and durable over time.
