Case Management

Our objective is to assist individuals with acquired brain injury and their family members to maximize their rehabilitation potential and to live as independently as possible.

In Case Management, we aim to do this by being...

a "way-finder"
to assist those affected to gain the resources necessary to maximize recovery. We work with – not for – everyone involved in the service.
an educational resource
to assist people with brain injury and their loved ones to understand what their journey may entail and to get pertinent information as required. We assist people to understand what options are available to them and what impact choices may have.
a supporter
to encourage those with brain injury and their loved ones to work hard and to support each other through recovery. VIHIS utilizes natural supports wherever possible and encourages those close to the injured person to play a meaningful role in the continuing recovery.

an advocate
for those with brain injury. VIHIS will work with them to help shape their world so that they have a place in our community.
a vigilant monitor
who provides a presence in the injured person’s life to ensure health status is maintained; to provide safety monitoring; to ensure that secondary difficulties arising from sequelae to injury are minimized; and to provide secondary and tertiary health prevention services through early detection and early intervention.
