About Graham Anderson House

Graham Anderson House is a specialist neuro-behavioural assessment and post-acute rehabilitation hospital for people with a non-progressive acquired brain injury (ABI).

The service has twenty-four single ensuite bedrooms, a transitional living flat and a four-bedroom step-down bungalow to ensure the people we support can live independently.

The people we support initially come to us for a 9 to 12-month assessment period, but this can be extended if the individual needs more complex support. We support people with an acquired brain injury and complex needs such as cognitive, physical and/or emotional difficulties, including physical and verbal aggression, impaired social functioning, and disinhibited behaviour.

Facilities 

We have 24 ensuite bedrooms, each with courtyard or garden views, complemented by spacious communal areas for dining and relaxation. Individuals enjoy access to a wide range of therapeutic and recreational facilities.

Our rehabilitation models

Our specialist rehabilitation is based on a neuro-behavioural approach and focuses on enabling people to function more independently and develop their lives as they choose. The multi-disciplinary team has specialist assessment and therapy rooms to aid recovery.

Graham Anderson House’s highly skilled staff offer compassionate, specialised care, teaming up with fellow Brainkind staff to support the people we support emotionally and physically. The team includes Psychiatrists, Occupational therapists, Physiotherapists, Social workers, Support Workers, Nurses, Speech and language therapists, Dietitians, Creative therapists, and Independence advocates.

The programme may include:

  • Educational and therapeutic sessions
  • Support for personal, social, and domestic skills
  • Guided leisure time
  • Behavioural management
  • Community access
  • Vocational support and training.

The people we support are actively involved in reviewing their progress against agreed outcomes, and we promote the involvement of families in the rehabilitation process. Home leave is encouraged wherever possible.

Becoming more independent

In addition to the main centre, there is a transitional living flat and a four-bedroom step-down bungalow where people can strengthen their skills before moving onto a more independent environment.

Access to the wider community forms an important part of rehabilitation. Located just two miles from Glasgow’s vibrant city centre with its wealth of cultural and leisure activities, Graham Anderson House is ideally placed for social integration and offers opportunities for education, training, and work placements.
