Brain Injury & Recovery: A Guide for Toronto Families
Acquired brain injury — whether from stroke, trauma, anoxia, or illness — changes everything. These guides are for families in the GTA navigating the transition from hospital or rehabilitation to home: what to expect, how to support recovery, and how to find the right care.
Acquired brain injury (ABI) affects over 1.5 million Canadians. Unlike a broken bone, the effects of ABI are often invisible — cognitive fatigue, personality changes, emotional dysregulation — and the path to recovery is rarely linear. Families are frequently left to coordinate care across multiple specialists with little guidance on what happens at home.
Toronto families have access to some of Canada's strongest rehabilitation hospitals — UHN, Sunnybrook, Baycrest — but the support often drops off sharply once a patient leaves inpatient care. Future articles in this collection will focus on bridging that gap between hospital and home.
