About CBI Health's Community Rehabilitation Services

Working in communities across Ontario, our Community Rehabilitation Services team treats clients who’ve 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’ve experienced trauma in the workplace. They have the opportunity to conduct in‑vivo exposure therapy and behavioural activation, and facilitate trauma processing, coping and return to function. Our innovative approach to evidence‑based care incorporates novel interventions like virtual reality to promote industry‑leading mental health outcomes. This program is one of a kind and allows you to become an expert in a growing and niche space 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 presenting with various physical (musculoskeletal, orthopaedic), 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 several other interventions. This program allows you to provide ‘start to finish care’ and guide your clients through every step of their recovery!

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