Rehabilitation Specialists provides an array of therapeutic services for individuals affected by brain injury and other neurological compromise. We primarily serve adults and adolescents and act as a source of referral for circumstances outside these parameters.
Typical hours for the outpatient center are 8:30-4:30 EST, but may be expanded on an as-needed basis and with sufficient notice. Our home and community based services and vocational program services are determined and provided based on the needs of the persons serviced and are scheduled accordingly.
Our residential services are provided 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days per year. On weekdays it is expected that our residential clients attend our outpatient program or an alternative daytime activity with the exception of holidays when our residential program is staffed 24 hours per day.
