Complex Care

NRIO ’ s Complex Care program, located in the Hamilton residence, offers a complete program of rehabilitation, nursing and community re-entry services to clients suffering with a severe brain injury.

• Avocational and Leisure Therapies
• Nursing and Personal Attendant Care

The Complex Care program is designed to enhance the functional skills and independence of individuals who traditionally were not served in community programs. The Complex Care program offers a unique opportunity for a full rehabilitation program for the individual with ongoing medical care needs. Clients may elect to live in NRIO ’ s residential setting or in their home to receive the extensive rehabilitation services.

Treatment is delivered by rehabilitation therapists under the supervision and direction of a rehabilitation specialist. The Complex Care program allows for the higher level of treatment intensity, duration and frequency required for meaningful and lasting change. The program also focuses on community reintegration and participation as a key aspect to return to independence.

Individual client programs are routinely evaluated and modifications are made as needed to ensure consisten progress. The client and their family are a vital member of the rehabilitation team and are encouraged to participate in goal setting and program development.

Individualized goals are determined upon intake to the program and reassessed throughout treatment.

• Increase levels of independence
