2 Inpatient, outpatient and therapy services Milwaukee Center for Independence Nexday programs provide a continuum of care for people recovering from a brain injury or stroke, or who require rehabilitative services due to disability, muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy, ALS or other neurological disease or disorder. Nexday s services and treatments are built on a foundation of evidenced-based care and research to effect recovery and positive outcomes in a three-tiered approach: Functional Independence Measure Nexday BIRC average 6-month gains BEFORE AFTER Nexday Brain Injury Rehab Center at Wellspring provides post-acute inpatient care that bridges the gap between hospital and home. Nexday Outpatient Services provides community-based outpatient services that treat the whole person and incorporate family and community into recovery. MCFI Therapy Agency provides customized therapies, including aquatic therapy, resulting in greater independence following an injury, disease or disorder. FIM SCORE COGNITIVE DRESSING (UPPER) DRESSING (LOWER) BATHING EATING Nexday BIRC at Wellspring uses the Functional Independence Measure, which measures motor skills and cognitive progress. It is the most widely accepted assessment in use in the inpatient rehabilitation community. An expert team of medical and rehabilitation professionals working with patients to achieve greater independence.

WENDI s Story After getting dizzy and falling down the steps at her apartment building, Wendi Mammel not only suffered a brain injury, but a stroke. She remained in the hospital for two months, where a portion of her skull was removed to relieve pressure on the brain. When Wendi was moved to a skilled nursing facility, her initial prognosis was that she was not likely to ever walk again. But within that facility was the Brain Injury Rehab Center, and the center s skilled staff worked closely with Wendi for the next 10 months. Over time, Wendi graduated from using a wheelchair to a walker and then a cane. She received physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy. She also received recreational therapy, psychology services and participated in activities at BIRC. Wendi believes that intensive daily care is the reason for the progress she s made. She learned strategies at BIRC to help her keep moving forward: I think I m better at expressing myself to people, and my walking is much better, said Wendi, who now lives independently. I shower by myself. I make my own meals. It s kind of cool. * Clients who are 15 to 18 years old have private rooms and 24-hour visitation is allowed. We coordinate with local schools so students can continue their education.

4 NEXDAY Outpatient Services Nexday Outpatient Services interdisciplinary team of brain injury rehabilitation specialists provides community-based outpatient services and treatment in one convenient location. Our expert staff provides individual care so specific recovery goals are met. Our team collaborates with physicians and other providers, and educational resources are available for clients, caregivers and families. JOHNNY S Story At a family reunion, Johnny Gratz mistook the basement door for the bathroom door. He tumbled down the stairs, banging his head on the concrete landing below. I was bleeding all over the place, he said. I wound up in a coma for about a week. They told my daughter I wasn t going to make it. But our family believes in prayer, believes in God. Five days later, his daughter saw his finger move. From then on, it was just a journey of recovery, she said. Johnny had to have a bone flap removed to relieve pressure on his brain and another operation to repair internal damage from the fall. His daughters found the ideal place for his ongoing rehabilitation the Brain Injury Rehab Center. At BIRC, Johnny participated in a number of therapies. I saw what they were trying to do for me get my cognitive functioning back, he said. Three years after his fall, he still has some pain, and his organizational skills aren t what they used to be, but he has come a long way. All in all, I m doing phenomenally, he said.

Before his injury, Robert liked to be outdoors, ride his bike and cook he had been employed as a cook after earning a culinary arts certificate from the Milwaukee Area Technical College. After his accident, though, Robert had issues with memory, irritability and impulse control, and he was not able to sustain employment for any length of time. That s when Robert became involved with MCFI LIFE Services, where staff members helped him get involved in community activities such as bowling and swimming. He started to meet new people and develop friendships, and he began to thrive. In 2013, Robert transferred to the MCFI Nexday brain injury recovery program, where he re-learned coping, organizational and planning skills. Today, Robert is living independently in the community, has improved relationships and is involved with several social and recreational activities. Robert has also been able to maintain employment in the hospitality field and is even involved in training new employees.
