Patient Outcome Report (Inpatient)

July 2023–June 2024

Bryn Mawr Rehab Hospital was one of the first rehabilitation institutions in the country to treat brain injuries and illnesses. We provide a continuum of care including acute inpatient programs, outpatient services, community re-entry services and support groups. Our comprehensive program of care ensures our patients receive the most appropriate treatment based on their injury and their personal needs.

Our patients receive a minimum of three hours of combined physical and occupational therapy at least five out of seven days. Additional services, such as higher intensity physical and occupational therapy, speech pathology, psychology, cognitive retraining, recreational therapy and other services are provided based on our assessment of each patient’s individual needs.

Results

Functional outcomes

Patients who suffer brain injuries usually require significant help to perform activities of daily living (ADLs), including dressing, walking and transfers. On admission, our patients require an average of maximum assistance to complete tasks involved in daily life; this means they are able to complete less than 50 percent of each daily task on their own.

On average, patients discharged from the Brain Injury Rehabilitation Program require only supervision to complete activities of daily living. This means our patients can complete each daily task, but they may require some steadying or supervision for more difficult tasks.

Discharge

 

Most patients who receive intensive, inpatient therapy as part of our comprehensive Brain Injury Rehabilitation Program are admitted from an acute care hospital where they stayed for an average of two to three weeks. Prior to that, most were living at home with family members, working in full-time jobs or attending school.

Following discharge from Bryn Mawr Rehab Hospital, 61.4 percent of our patients were able to return to a home environment; 19.6 percent required ongoing care at a skilled nursing facility; and 19 percent were re-admitted to an acute care hospital due to complications or other factors.

Patient satisfaction

The primary focus of our Brain Injury Rehabilitation Program is to provide the highest quality, personalized clinical patient care.
