With over 37 years of service delivery we have access to the most comprehensive pool of experienced Rehabilitation Support Workers in Ontario, ensuring the very best match between the individual requiring support and the Rehabilitation Support Worker.
We offer clients and practitioners a variety of service choices and benefits to enable the client to achieve the very best recovery possible. We prepare and support the client in dealing with the challenges of his or her own environment. This includes identifying and understanding how the client’s behaviour – and their family’s reaction to the behaviour – has been affected by the trauma, and helps them to effectively deal with the emotions that can impede rehabilitation. Cultural and language needs are addressed prior to services being offered.
We offer Rehabilitation Support Workers that speak over 25 languages: Akan, Ashanti, American Sign Language, Cantonese, Croatian, Dutch, Egyptian, Fante, Farsi, French, German, Greek, Hausa, Hindi, Italian, Korean, Mandarin, Philipino/Tagalog, Polish, Portugese, Punjabi, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Spanish, Tamil, Twi, Urdu, Ukrainian, Yoruba.
Services are available in hospital, home, school, workplace and community.
Community
Our Rehabilitation Support Workers provide direct therapy and transitional support to individuals who exhibit social, emotional and/or behavioral difficulties which may prevent them from a successful re-integration into the community. Service is delivered in the hospital, client’s home, community, school or workplace.
Our approach focuses on the functional and cognitive remediation needs of the client. Our Rehabilitation Support Workers implement programs under the direction of a regulated health care professional and receive ongoing support from our highly experienced regional Service Directors. The service is flexible, client-directed and reflective of the goals and needs of the individual.
Post settlement
This service is designed to provide cost-effective support to the individual in maintaining the gains they have made and to address ongoing psychosocial/emotional and behavioural issues. The service can be delivered in the community, at home, school, work or in a long-term care facility.
Vocational
Our Rehabilitation Support Workers are available to vocational assessment and rehabilitation organizations to assist and support individuals who are experiencing obstacles in returning to work, or retaining work after an accident, illness or other major life event. Our service is client-centred and carefully considers the individual’s strengths and limitations in supporting a realistic and achievable vocational plan. Our strength is our ability to fully support and implement comprehensive treatment plans to ensure all the necessary steps are completed to ensure successful employment.
Consultation, educational and training workshops
We provide consultation, educational and training workshops to support family members, and other individuals who work with people with an acquired brain injury.
Consultation is available to individuals, families and professionals to assist in the design, development and implementation of individual treatment plans, as well as short-term interventions due to crisis situations. Our Service Coordinators and Associates have substantial experience in providing consultation in regards to home, school and vocational re-integration.
Education and training workshops are available to individuals, families and professionals to better understand the particular needs of individuals who have experienced an acquired brain injury. Our workshops and training sessions are highly interactive, practical, and can be custom designed to meet the needs of the participants and the environment in which they live/ work.
Please note: Our consultation, education and training services can be combined with the direct services that we provide through our Rehabilitation Services.
