Supported Living
Supported Living at CNS is focused on maintaining the patient outcomes achieved in active therapy. Patients receiving this care may have transitioned from our Inpatient Residential, Day Treatment, or Assisted Living Residential treatment options. Patients in Supported Living have schedules consisting of a broad range of personalized CNS services tailored to their ongoing needs.
An individual approach to patient care is the cornerstone of our treatment approach, and CNS’ Continued Care Program is no different. Our staff provide person-centered care with expertise, respect, and compassion. CNS staff communicate frequently with the family and provide updates and recommendations along the way.
What is the CNS Enrichment Center?
The Enrichment Center at Centre for Neuro Skills is a space within our clinical setting, that offers a schedule of structured, age-appropriate activities for patients. Typically, Assisted Living Residential, or Supported Living patients at CNS attend the Enrichment Center to maintain the outcomes they achieved in active therapy.
Activities at the Enrichment Center are focused on therapeutic endeavors, engagement opportunities, and skill building, to enrich patients’ lives. They are also centered around the personal interests and capabilities of each patient.
Activities that are therapy-based might include problem-solving games, a fitness class, a community education course, or a money management exercise. Other activities are artistic and creative, ranging from crafting dream catchers to learning how to prepare home-made salsa, or participating in fundraising events.
The emphasis on community integration and environmental validity at CNS is an integral part of our treatment approach. It allows patients to discover new experiences, provides access to valuable community resources, and challenges patients to adapt and grow. Our therapists collaborate, as part of the patient’s treatment team, to plan activities that augment therapy and address specific deficits, such as enhancing motor skills and improving social and cognitive functioning.
Our experienced staff are committed to the overall wellbeing of each patient, empowering patients to enjoy dignified, productive lives, and dedicated to helping them achieve the best possible quality of life. At CNS, patients learn, grow, socialize, and maximize their independence.
