Brain injury is a highly complex condition that affects each patient differently and creates a level of uncertainty in planning for the future. You may hear terms such as “vegetative state” or “minimally conscious” without fully understanding how they apply to your loved one.
You want to make the right decision for your loved one’s care. The physicians and therapists in the Brain Injury Medicine and Rehabilitation Program at the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab (formerly Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago) can help. The AbilityLab is a nationally recognized leader in brain injury medicine and rehabilitation and a leading expert in assessment of minimally conscious state, so you can feel confident in your care decisions.
The Amicous® program is designed specifically to assess brain injured patients in a minimally conscious state. The program aims to identify the best next steps early on and assist in making a smooth transition to the next phase of care, whether that is at home with loved ones or in a skilled care setting.
