Project PATH (Promoting Access, Transition & Health) provides one to one consulting to individuals with spinal cord injuries (SCI), empowering them to return to active healthy lives. PATH patients are people who have new spinal cord injuries and have recently returned home from rehabilitation. We believe that for many, PATH is the final step in successful rehabilitation. Changes in health care have lead to a shortened length of stays in rehabilitation settings. The shortened stays have necessitated that the attention and time spent in rehabilitation focus on basic functional skills, leaving the consumer to take these functional building blocks and make them work in their home community. Some consumers are successful making this transition while others are not. Unfortunately, secondary conditions like pressure sores, urinary tract and respiratory infections, obesity, depression, and substance abuse are common in people with spinal cord injuries. They lead to re-hospitalization, missed work and social isolation. Project PATH helps the consumer gain mastery of functional skills, problem-solve issues that threaten independence, and help establish positive behaviors that will prevent the onset of many of the most costly secondary conditions. PATH interventions provide skills, resources, and support to circumvent many secondary conditions and lead to a positive quality of life.
