The @bionessrehab Vector working double time!! Jacob (CVA) stepping with Clinical Director Elliot, and Don (Guillian-Barre) clears hurdles with PT Ali 💪💪.

The vector is one of many over-ground gait training tools we use to eliminate body-weight , and provide assisted stepping.

Happy to trial the new @onwdempowered Arc-ex Transcutaneous Electrical Stimulation (TSS) device today. Charlotte (spinal stenosis 2024) is the first person in Indiana to use the unit! This is an alternate form of Electrical Stimulation that uses electrodes over the skin above and below the injury level to stimulate the cervical spinal cord directly, as opposed to placing electrodes on affected muscle groups and the peripheral nervous system. The goal: increase motor signal strength by tapping into the excitability of the nervous system at the spinal cord.
Thanks to Onward for the visit! This is an intervention we look forward to investigating!

Our poster presentation at @official_apta CSM last weekend! For two years, NeuroHope has tracked hospital re-admission rates of the patients living with Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) that participate in our extended care programs.

Why?
Because re-admission rates due to inactivity are HIGH for people with neurologic injuries (30% are hospitalized at least once every year for an average of 18 days per visit), and EACH instance may cost the healthcare system hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Our study with @uindy is ongoing and here’s what we’ve found so far:

- Hospitalizations and ER visits of NeuroHope patients are less than HALF of the national averages for SCI

- Length of hospital stays averaged 1-6 days. Well below the national average of 18 days

-Participants reported lower rates of new medical complications, indicating improved health while participating in our extended care programs.

It’s a narrative that tell us what we’ve seen since NeuroHope started 10 years ago…and what we already know:

-People living with paralysis need MUCH more than 30 insurance covered outpatient therapy visits.

-Long-term access to rehabilitation and wellness maximizes recovery, keeps people healthy, and can save the healthcare system money when delivered properly.

This is why we’re here!.

An exciting year of expansion comes to a close, and we have much to be thankful for at NeuroHope!

We celebrated our 10-year anniversary with major funding from the @orthoindy Foundation and the Indiana Department of Health, continued a research project with @uindy_kspt to track the hospital re-admission rates of our patients, strengthened programs to serve more than 200 people along their road to recovery (the most ever in a given year), and helped the 600th patient in our history!

Additionally, we proudly partnered with @conquerparalysisnow , a fellow non-profit founded by @sam.schmidt_ , and relocated our clinical operations in September to the newly renovated DRIVEN NeuroRecovery Center.

In addition to expanding NeuroHope’s services and increasing access to rehabilitative care, the DRIVEN NeuroRecovery Center will be a future campus for research, adaptive sports and recreation, and like-minded organizations to collaborate and reside.

Over the last decade, NeuroHope has become a critical community resource for people recovering from paralysis.

Our mission to ensure those living with paralysis have long-term access to rehabilitation and wellness continues!

Happy holiday season!!
