Programs described in its return (1)
- $10.1 million spent. The Transitional Living Center provides a pleasing structured environment both in a 24 hour residential care and day treatment program where those with brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, and neurological trauma can safely work on developing their highest attainable level for independent and productive living. Residential patients are under the careful supervision of a comprehensive, interdisciplinary team comprised of physicians, neurophysiologists, behavioral specialists, speech-language pathologists, physical and occupational therapists, nurses, and clinical case managers. In this intensive therapeutic environment, the therapy team uses a variety of rehabilitative strategies to maximize each patient's full potential. Focus is placed on physical restoration of functions, cognitive skill building, social/behavioral shaping, community and psychological social adjustment with the goal of reintegration into the home and community. Family members are encouraged to participate, if appropriate, alongside our professionals to fully witness and understand the necessary techniques to facilitate a smooth transition and to prepare them for their role in the individual's future care needs. While therapies take place at the Transitional Living Center campus, patients also interact in "real life" surroundings. Community sites are incorporated to practice skills in functional situations and to facilitate a transition to the site of discharge.
