Testimonials

Our programs assist persons with moderate to severe brain injuries in increasing their level of independence. We are proud to make a difference in the lives of our patients and their families. Read more about what clients and partners have to say.

Outcome Study

Since 1999, we has conducted an Outcome Validation Study to evaluate the performance and quality of its services and programming. The study looks at various groups that we have serviced, as well as customer and staff satisfaction.

Over the years, the study has evolved to better measure the relevancy of rehabilitation as related to the challenges faced by our clients as they return to independence, family, work and school. An important component of the outcome study is the durability of the outcomes attained by clients over time.

The recognition of NRIO compliance with standards at this level speaks to the excellence NRIO employees bring to the organization.

Effective 2018, ICS-NRIO became the ISO certified. NRIO continue following all the Accreditation Canada standards and procedures, integrating them into the ISO standards, and ensuring compliance with all accreditation requirements.

My name is MF, and I am a client of NRIO. After my accident and the death of my mother they helped me to grow into the responsible and respectful man I am today and learn to take control over my brain injury. I am now living in my own place, independently and have better control over my anger and life thanks to the wonderful staff from NRIO. They are the best neurologic rehab facility in Canada, if not the world.

Sincerely,

-MF.-
