Stroke and neurology outcomes Adolescent outcomes Stroke patients are the largest population served on the St. Cloud Hospital Rehabilitation Unit. The second largest group includes patients with neurological conditions including traumatic and non-traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury and dysfunction, and neurological disorders. In both groups, we achieved better functional improvement as demonstrated by the total FIM change and length of stay efficiency for the duration, compared to regional and national rehabilitation facilities. Children with major illnesses and complex injuries have different needs than adults. Our rehabilitation team is committed to providing personalized, coordinated care to support adolescent patients, ages 13-17, and their families. We work with our patients to achieve optimum independence, allowing them to return to home, school and community.
