f you are looking to improve quality of service with durable outcomes that can provide maximum independence for a select population of persons with severe disabilities, The Shortest Distance offers concrete solutions using the success story of Learning Services Corporation as its model.
Today, merely surviving serious head injury is not the issue. Due to the evolution of rehabilitation therapies over the past decade or so, functional improvement of many, if not most, brain-injured survivors now stands as a distinct possibility. Frustration continues to mount in determining who is showing continued improvement and who is not, who deserves aggressive treatment versus termination of services, who is getting "quality" care and service.
One answer to the growing concerns in providing for the needs of individuals with traumatic brain injury is alternative site speciality care services. The Shortest Distance illustrates how one health care company achieved increased quality cost-effectiveness, gained a clear understanding of the rehabilitation business including the basic principles and tenets of rehabilitation, and initiated behavioral changes within the organization to carry through with those principles.
