Outcome data from 44 brain-injured clients discharged from a rehabilitation centre during 1 year were analysed. The outcome measures were employed or unemployed, and the independent living status of the client. The predictor variables were demographic, behavioural, psychological, and neuropsychological data for each client. Results revealed that nearly 70% of the adult clients were placed in a less restrictive setting, and over two-thirds were placed in productive employment. Follow-up reports, 3-12 months post-discharge, found that 59% of the adult clients continued to live in a less restrictive setting, and 50% maintained successful employment. Data on adolescents reveal that four out of five returned home to live with parents, and four out of five returned to public schools. Reasons for successful rehabilitation of brain-injured clients are discussed.
