RehaCom - Cognitive Therapy

Training in mother tongue The software has about 30 modules and is also available in 27 other native languages, so patients can work in their mother tongue. The software is auto-adaptive so the difficulty level will rise and fall depending on the performance of the patient. After a period of therapy inside a facility, the patient can also be supervised at home, over the internet, by using RehaCom’s remote supervised training option.

Rooted In Science he system has been developed by and for neuropsychologists over the last 20 years. Although it feels like a game, it is rooted in science and clinically proven. Multiple Language Options The software is available in 27 languages at no extra cost, so clients can train in their native language. About 30 modules are available in the English language. Universal Use The procedures cover all stages of rehabilitation. Training can start as soon as possible after ABI and continue all the way through rehabilitation. Deficit Specific The modules cover all cognitive deficits including attention, reaction, memory, and higher executive functions. This means deficits can be targeted and specifically trained. Auto-Adaptive The system is auto-adaptive, meaning the activity will get harder or easier depending on the performance of the client. This ensures steady progression and reduces frustration for the client. Screening RehaCom offers a number of Screening Modules to detect impairments and recommend corresponding cognitive training modules. Regular screening can also help show progression and provide detailed reporting. Remote Supervision Supervised training over the internet is available with Internet licenses. You can prescribe a training programme and monitor your clients remotely. Maximise Therapy Time Reinforce therapy strategies using RehaCom modules. It will enable you to work more efficiently with your clients and after a number of sessions, they can even work alone.

Improved Cognitive Function With consistent use the patient will see clear improvement in areas of cognitive deficit. Many tasks will reinforce the strategies of their therapist and maximise their recovery. Individual The software is adaptable to the patient. They can work in their native language, allow for visual deficits and even use familiar stimuli - such as family images - within the training. Remote Working RehaCom can be used remotely with therapist supervision over the internet. This means they can continue working on modules and reinforcing therapy strategies outwith their regular sessions, improving their recovery. Resists Frustration The modules auto-adapt to the patient’s success. When they find a task difficult they will find it gets easier until they can cope. If it is relatively easy the software will introduce a little more challenge and prevent boredom.

RehaCom has evolved to become the leading European tool for computer-based cognitive rehabilitation, with over 95 % of German rehabilitation clinics using RehaCom every day! This is not a brain training tool for amusement - although it is engaging to use. It was designed by clinicians and engineers to deliver real-world benefits for users with cognitive issues following a brain injury. With RehaCom you can have an unlimited number of Therapist and Client profiles. Clients can be assigned to multiple therapists as required. You only need some basic information to create a profile but there is scope to add much more if required. Once you have created a Client Profile you might want to try one or two Screening Modules to get an idea of their current status and get suggestions for starting modules.

- How sensitive the adaptivity should be

Once the therapist is satisfied the client can begin training (with or without setup instructions from the RehaCom system). As the training goes on, the task will become easier or harder depending on the client’s performance. This means that it can remain challenging without becoming frustrating. Training can always be paused or instructions repeated if necessary.
