Toronto Rehab in 2011

When complete, Toronto Rehabilitation’s University Centre will be a more modern hospital with facilities better designed to provide care to adults undergoing rehabilitation for serious injury and illness including stroke, brain injury and multiple traumas and cancer. The redevelopment will also include the creation of iDAPT facilities – Intelligent Design for Adaptation, Participation and Technology –one of the most advanced rehabilitation research facilities in the world.

This major undertaking will result in more appropriate clinical space for our specialized patient care services and our innovative research and education programs including:

• Patient Care: A new 13-storey tower added to the southwest corner of the existing building will allow for increased outpatient capacity, more spacious and private inpatient rooms, on-unit therapy spaces and facilities that are more conducive to rehabilitation and recovery;
• Research: New research laboratories and testing facilities to accommodate teams of scientists recruited from across Canada and internationally. This will result in additional space dedicated to Toronto Rehab's growing research program;
• Education: Dedicated education space to accommodate the increasing number of students who come to Toronto Rehab to complete their clinical training in a variety of healthcare disciplines; and the ongoing professional development and education provided for practitioners from across the country.
