Catering to those who have experienced a traumatic brain injury (TBI),
Origami Brain Injury Rehab Center focuses on returning individuals back to their homes, to work or school, and to driving. In their commitment to develop expertise solely in this area, Origami strives to keep on the cutting edge of innovation in brain injury rehabilitation.
Eric Hannah, Director of Program Operations explains future goals for the organization: “First, we plan to continue to provide excellent care and treatment to our clients and families. We have two other priorities at this time: (1) the impact of TBI on Veterans: we are one of 21 providers in the nation who participate in a pilot program within VA specifically designed to provide care and rehabilitation services to Veterans with TBI; (2) youth sports concussions: we are actively working to educate coaches and families about the impacts of concussions as well as the importance of recognizing early signs & symptoms.” Origami also partners both with Michigan State University and Peckham.
Origami currently staffs about 80 individuals, all of whom are extensively trained to serve the needs of clients. They’re currently hiring for an LPN position, and anticipate continued hiring for qualified and passionate staff members throughout the upcoming year. “In addition to our staff,” says Hannah, “we provide a great learning experience for approximately 40 clinical and non-clinical internships through 33 agreements with colleges and universities nationwide. We help train and prepare the therapists and nurses of tomorrow with hands on learning opportunities.”
