Our customized rehabilitation programs are designed to meet people's individual needs – the therapy they need to walk, the tools they need to perform daily activities, and the strength they need to get back to their lives. This year, we built our revenue-generating services to meet some very specific needs.
St. John's Rehab Hospital has been designated by the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) as the home of Ontario's only specialty clinic for those who sustain serious burns or electrical injuries in the workplace. This is a major breakthrough for survivors of electrical injuries, who can now access a designated, specialized rehabilitation program. As part of the hospital's outpatient Back on Track program, St. John's Rehab is helping clients who have been involved in traumatic motor vehicle and work-related accidents progress towards their pre-accident levels of function in their work, leisure activities and daily lives.
Our Complex Evaluation Experts service assesses clients on their current level of function using up-to-date, standardized and industry-endorsed techniques. This year, we've improved our administrative process to provide more independent evaluations in a shorter timeframe so we can better meet the needs of insurance companies and legal professionals. By strengthening ties with our hospital partners, enhancing the quality of our reports, and improving the qualifications of our assessors, we've also generated nearly $1 million in revenue – important funds that are invested in supporting our overall patient care programs.
Along with St. John's Rehab Hospital's expert rehab services, patients and members of the community can now benefit from two new programs that combine exercise and education to maintain a healthy lifestyle and help prevent future illness and injury. Whether you are looking for a post-rehabilitation routine, a general exercise program to promote good health, or a way to prepare your body and mind for upcoming surgery and rehabilitation, the new fee-for-service Active Living and Pre-Hab programs will help you to proactively take control of your health.
When 30-year-old Bryan and his fiancée Jenna were about to mail their wedding invitations, they had no idea they'd marry in a hospital chapel. Just a stone's throw away from his home, a vehicle crashed into Bryan's motorcycle, crushing his left leg and rupturing the gas tank. Next came the explosion.
