Swing Shift Caregiver - Unique Opportunity

About Brain Rehab Network:

Everything we believe in at Brain Rehab Network (BRN) challenges the status quo. We think differently about helping adults who have a brain injury by keeping the person at the center of care, striving to achieve mutually agreed upon goals that are centered on independence, function, and quality of life.

As the first "Specialized Living Facility" in the state of Oregon to focus on brain injury rehabilitation services and the only CARF Accredited residential program for brain injury in the state. BRN has a 30 year history of developing customized programs that benefit residents in our program. We offer independence within the structure of a supported living environment that focuses on developing compensatory strategies which allow survivors to successfully transition back into community where they achieve independence and experience a high quality of life.
