Data on Referrals Received

The Toronto ABI Network manages referrals for acquired brain injury services in the Greater Toronto Area. Referrals for inpatient service are triaged through the Network office to the first available bed that is appropriate to the individual's needs. The Network also facilitates the process of referring to community-based ABI providers.

The following information reports only on patients/clients referred through the Network office and is not intended to reflect incidence data.
