| In addition to the rehabilitation team, the Brain Injury unit has developed their program based on a neurological diagnosis. Patients are evaluated by a neurologist upon admission and throughout their stay to ensure maximization of the patient's level of participation through the latest treatment modalities. The team will access the specialty of neuro-psychology and psychology to address the emotional needs of patients with Brian Injury assisting in the adjustment of both patient and family. |

There are many variables to consider in establishing safe, efficiently staffed hospital units. Patient care units differ based upon the types
of patients cared for on a given unit, and the way in which care is organized and delivered there. Education and experience levels of unit
staff, support from nurse educators and nurse managers also factor into unit staffing decisions, as does the unique characteristics and mission of each
hospital. It is also important to look at patient outcomes (including fall rates, pressure ulcer rates, and Hospital Compare measures related
to heart attack care, heart failure care, pneumonia care and surgical care) in the Performance Measures section of PatientCareLink.
