About CBI Health’s Community Rehabilitation Services

Working in communities across Ontario, our Community Rehabilitation Services team treats clients who have experienced mental stress injuries and motor vehicle accidents, focusing on a return to pre-accident function.

In our Traumatic Psychological Injury program, Occupational Therapists work with clients such as first responders who have experienced workplace trauma. They have the opportunity to conduct in-vivo exposure therapy, behavioral activation, and facilitate trauma processing, coping, and return to function. Our innovative, evidence-based approach incorporates novel interventions like virtual reality to promote industry-leading mental health outcomes. This program is unique and allows you to become an expert in a growing niche within our OT profession. Click here to see the life-changing work we do with our clients!

Occupational Therapists within our Complex Auto program assess and treat clients with physical (musculoskeletal, orthopedic), cognitive (TBIs, concussions), and psychosocial impairments related to motor vehicle accidents. Working in a community setting, you will have the opportunity to complete in-home and hospital discharge assessments, ergonomic assessments, concussion treatment, cognitive rehabilitation, mental health treatment, and other interventions. This program enables you to provide comprehensive care and guide clients through every step of recovery.

Many of our OTs focus on one area of practice, while others prefer the variety offered by a mixed caseload.
