Dual Diagnosis

 

NRIO has developed a program for those clients who have an acquired brain injury, as well as psychiatric, behavioural health, or addictive problems. Our Dual Diagnosis program offers a complete multi-disciplinary program of rehabilitation, counselling and community re-entry services. Program design may include utilizing individual and established support programs, such as Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA), to assist the client in managing their addiction. Attendance in these programs will be supported by NRIO staff. Neuropsychological counseling is also offered where needed. Each program is set up to address the specific behavioural health and rehabilitation issues.

NRIO has programs for clients with:

• Pre- and post-injury psychiatric problems exacerbated by brain injury
• Substance abuse / addictive problems
• Post-traumatic stress disorder
• Post-concussive syndrome with the cognitive, psychological and behavioural components of brain injury along with pre- or post-injury psychiatric / psychological problems

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

• Increase levels of independence
• Community reintegration
• Enhance ability to self-regulate interfering behaviours, addiction and substance abuse
• Enhance ability to address further rehabilitation goals
