Advancing Human Ability ® Shirley Ryan AbilityLab is the leader in caring for brain injury patients with a wide range of functional impairment — from the most catastrophic to the less severe. Our clinicians see patients throughout the continuum of recovery — from consultation in the acute-care setting, inpatient rehabilitation therapy and outpatient options to follow-up care.
DAYREHAB CENTER ® Our DayRehab Centers ® are designed to care for patients who no longer require inpatient hospitalization, but still need intensive, coordinated rehabilitation. The goal is to help patients regain the highest level of function while living at home. OUTPATIENT Our physicians continue to follow patients after discharge in one of our outpatient clinics. Outpatient therapy is recommended for patients who have therapy needs, but do not require interdisciplinary rehabilitation. LIFETIME CARE We have five specialist physicians who are board certified in Brain Injury Medicine and who can provide long-term care for the duration of a patient’s life, if necessary.
PRE-ADMISSION SERVICES Our physicians may consult with care teams at other hospitals, collaboration that can provide valuable insight for determining prognosis and treatment. Our Admission Liaisons consult with patients and families while they are still in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) or a long- term, acute-care hospital (LTACH), thereby
giving care teams a head start in determining appropriate care.
INPATIENT Our team of specialists evaluates and works with patients from pre-admission to discharge, an ongoing process that enables team members to monitor progress, adapt therapies and better anticipate the future and potential for recovery.
