Neurological Conditions Outcomes*
January 2010 – December 2010
Riverside Rehabilitation Institute is committed to providing the highest quality rehabilitation to our patients so they can experience the best possible results. We seek to improve who we are and what we do every single day. The result is an unparalleled rehabilitation experience for our patients and their loved ones.
- 86% of patients admitted to RRI for neurological conditions are discharged back home. This is 15% higher than the national average of 71%.
-
RRI's neurological recovery patients are admitted an average of 15 days after the onset of their illness, two days earlier than the national average of 17 days.
-
During their stay at RRI, patients usually progress from needing a moderate amount of help to needing only a minimal amount of help with tasks such as bathing, dressing, walking/wheelchair use and ability to understand.
- We have delivered improved functional abilities, even as our patient population has displayed more serious and more complicated conditions.

*RRI outcomes are measured using Functional Independence Measures (FIM), a standard tool used nationally to asses patients' ability to perform certain tasks. FIM scores at admission are compared to FIM scores upon discharge to measure progress in key areas, such as self-care and communication.
