Brain Injury Guide

This patient information family guide to the Rancho Los Amigos Level of Cognitive Functioning scale is widely used in rehabilitation treatment for brain injury. This evaluation tool identifies patterns of recovery for people with closed-head injury. It is most appropriate for traumatic brain injury patients with cognitive and memory deficits who are less than one-year post onset. The scale describes behavioral characteristics and cognitive deficits associated with brain injury to help the rehabilitation team understand and focus on the person's abilities in designing an appropriate treatment program.
