Clinical Outcomes for Stroke Patients at Casa Colina

Physical Improvement

Casa Colina patients experience significant improvements in their physical abilities, including walking. 

Using the Stroke Rehabilitation Assessment of Movement, we measure basic mobility and key muscle function lying down, sitting, standing, and walking. At Casa Colina, we observe significant improvement in our patient's mobility, leading to an increase in their overall independence. (Data collected between 1/2010 - 12/2010)

Increased Independence

Casa Colina patients experience a significant decrease in the level of supervision they need, translating into increased independence and greater ability to return to their previous living environment.
  

We use the Supervision Rating Scale to measure the amount of supervision an individual needs from a licensed professional or caregiver. On average when patients are admitted to Casa Colina after having a stroke they require full time direct or indirect supervision. By discharge they only require part-time supervision. This allows more of our patients to return home and participate in community activities. (Data collected between 1/2010 - 12/2010)
