Respite, IDME & Supervised Vacations

Vacations:

NeuroInternational has partnered with a European Bed & Breakfast (owned by the family that owns NeuroInternational) to host supervised European vacations for persons with neurologic impairment and other disabilities. Other vacation destinations abroad also include the Caribbean, Costa Rica, Panama, and South Africa (Cape Town). Vacation are also offered in major cities within the continental United States (Orlando, Manhattan, LA, Boston, Miami, Tampa, Dallas, Atlanta, Sarasota, Key West).

The NeuroInternational treatment team evaluates the prospective traveler via medical records review or face-to-face evaluation and develops behavioral and medical management protocols for the trained staff to follow during the trip. The team consults with the participant’s home caregivers, external case managers, and doctors to ensure appropriate care plans are in place for the trip.

Respite:

There are many reasons why someone may benefit from respite care. Sometimes the home caregivers need a break for various reasons and at times the participant may need time away from home.

The multidisciplinary treatment team can do an Integrated Disability Management Evaluation (IDME) – a periodic comprehensive evaluation to establish status and make recommendations for ongoing treatment at home – while participants are staying in the respite program.

Living Situation While in Respite Programs:

We can arrange in-home supervision or clients can stay in one of our residential programs such as the free-standing post-acute program in Sarasota, Florida. Our residential settings are full-service and have private rooms, wireless internet, cable, phone, daily maid cleaning services and all the other amenities needed for safety and comfort.
