Commitment
The major goal of Solutions at Santa Barbara is to assist each client
to achieve the highest level of functional independence possible while
enhancing one's abilities to return home, school, work and meaningful,
productive activity. We encourage each client to develop original "solutions"
to the problems they now face. Designed for individuals who are capable
of benefiting from an active, "hands on" rehabilitative approach,
Solutions at Santa Barbara offers highly personalized, comprehensive programs
to meet the needs of individuals with
· Traumatic brain injury,
· Stroke,
· Aneurysm,
· Post concussive syndrome,
· Or other neurological disorders.
Established in 1988, Solutions at Santa Barbara has been meeting the special
needs of clients and families in the tri-counties area for over ten years.
Located in the residential neighborhood of Goleta, Solutions at Santa
Barbara is surrounded by large pine trees, adding to the peace and tranquility
of the environment. The program offers clients the safe, distraction-free
atmosphere of suburban living without sacrificing important access to
shopping, businesses, public transportation, recreational and educational
facilities.
Programs
Our residential and day treatment community re-entry programs emphasize
physical therapy, speech/language therapy, and occupational therapy. An
individualized program, based on an initial assessment of abilities, is
quickly developed to address each participant's special needs. Under the
supervision of a Medical Director, individual and group treatment sessions
are conducted by licensed, experienced therapists. Each aspect of the
program focuses on functional cognitive retraining, community based socialization,
mental and physical endurance building, and the teaching and practice
of compensatory techniques and strategies. Evening and weekend recreational/leisure
activities are also offered.
Clients develop confidence as newly learned skills, behaviors, and responsibilities
are practiced and reinforced. Our continuum of therapeutic services begins
within our program and continues into our clients' home, community, educational,
volunteer, and employment settings. Together with our large network of
network of referral sources in surrounded communities, we provide a smooth
transition to home. Collaborative discharge planning includes the family,
physician, therapist, payor source liaison, and additional service providers
as needed.
Involvement
The involvement of family and significant others is critical to our clients'
successful outcomes. Family support meetings, conferences, resource materials
and individual counseling are available. Families are encouraged to observe
therapy sessions, participate in brain injury education and training,
and attend our family conferences to maintain close involvement in the
individual's recovery. Our case manager is in frequent contact with family
members, payors, and referring facilities to establish agreed upon expectations
for realistic functional outcomes.

Adult Residential Facility and an Adult Day Care Center that can accommodate
