How we can help.
TBI Assessment
Every person is unique, and so are his or her personal rehabilitation needs. The BIRC assessment team evaluates teens and adults who have sustained brain injury, identifying their cognitive and functional strengths and weaknesses in order to create a tailored treatment regimen designed to restore the clients to their lives, families and passions.
Intensive Treatment Program
The Intensive Treatment Program is intended for clients on the wide spectrum of acquired brain injuries. This includes individuals suffering from the residual effects of post-concussion syndrome, memory and attention deficit, and those recovering from severe brain injuries resulting in larger cognitive, functional and emotional difficulties.
The BIRC’s goal is to create an individually tailored treatment programs for each client, focused on developing their latent potential and raising their overall level of function. Their rehabilitation regimen, based on the results of their assessment, is prepared by integrating Feuerstein’s Instrumental Enrichment tools and requisite allied health therapies.
Head Injury Day Rehabilitation
The Feuerstein Institute’s Head Injury Day Rehabilitation centers are outpatient facilities that provide daily treatment for individuals who have suffered a traumatic head injury resulting from accidents, strokes, cancer, and more and are dealing with various levels of motor, verbal, emotional, and cognitive injuries. The Center’s patients come from all over Israel and are referred to Feuerstein by local welfare departments, which also fund the treatment. Sponsored by the Ministry of Social Affairs, Labor, and Social Service, the centers have a unique status in the field of traumatic head injuries within Israel.
