Brain Injury

Recognized as a national leader in the treatment of traumatic and non-traumatic brain injuries, the brain injury service at Rehabilitation Institute of Michigan (RIM) was the first program of its kind established in the Midwest and has been helping people rebuild their lives since 1979.

Today, RIM treats more brain injury patients than any other program in the state. Our high patient volume and diverse patient population mean our team of experts is experienced in treating all types of brain injuries, including the most complex cases. Furthermore, recent data shows that upon completion of their hospital stay, RIM's brain injury patients have a very high return-to-home rate when compared to other rehab facilities and national statistics.

RIM is home to the
Southeastern Michigan Traumatic Brain Injury System (SEMTBIS)
. SEMTBIS conducts groundbreaking research in the field of rehabilitation medicine, sharing the resulting innovations with other brain injury providers worldwide. Clinical researchers study issues such as medication effects, course of recovery, psychological factors and treatment outcomes. This ongoing research is vital to future advances in the treatment and recovery of persons with brain injuries.
