Acquired Brain Injury

Pathways to Independence specializes in supporting individuals with an Acquired Brain Injury. Our programs and services are tailored to accommodate individual needs and provide a continuum of care. We recognize that people’s needs change over time and our services and support adapt on a continuous basis to meet a person’s changing requirements.

Fully-accredited by the Canadian Council of Health Services and a preferred service provider of the Ministry of Health and Long Term Care, Pathways to Independence is regularly assessed and evaluated against exacting standards of care. These standards ensure that we can provide the highest quality of residential services for the people we support, their families and third party funding agencies.

• 24 hour supported homes
• Supported Independent living in apartments
• Family Homes

We use comprehensive planning processes to support a person’s rehabilitation and reintegration to the community following a brain injury. In addition to assisting with activities of daily living, our staff access broad social networks and community partners to develop and support the implementation of a person’s individualized plan.

Depending upon the nature of the brain injury, these supports may include:

• Physiotherapy
• Occupational Therapy
• Speech Therapy
• Psychological & Psychiatric Services
• Nursing
• Dietitian
• Adult Education, Vocational Training or Upgrading
• Family support
