Brian Meacham's Story

I spent 3 months in a hospital and rehab center in Houston, Texas after I had a work-related accident that left me with a severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). When I was well enough to return to Arizona, I arrived at Neuro RehabCare on March 4, 2025 and was getting physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy to improve my strength, endurance, balance, and cognition. 


My physical abilities and my memory, attention, and word-finding skills have gotten much better during my time at NRC, and I will be discharging at the end of September. I also worked with the neuropsychologist to practice memory tools and manage my mood and attitude during the recovery process. I participated in two volunteer programs to help me get back into the community and practice working with people. 


After I leave NRC, I will be living in a 55+ community and am excited to get involved in some of the activities they offer and meet new people. I am looking forward to getting back to doing things that I enjoyed before my accident like camping, fishing, and hiking. I will also be going to outpatient therapy to continue working on returning to driving again and maybe even work. I will really miss everyone who helped me at NRC and appreciate all of their help. I am excited for the future and would give NRC 10/10 stars!


Family Review:

To the Incredible Team at Neuro RehabCare of Scottsdale,


On behalf of our entire family, we want to extend our deepest thanks for the outstanding care and support you provided to our brother, Brian Meacham, during his recovery from a traumatic brain injury.


The path following a TBI is never easy, especially when receiving care more than 2,000 miles from home. But from the moment Brian arrived at your facility, we felt reassured knowing he was in compassionate, capable hands. Your team took the time to listen to our concerns, understand his needs, and involve us in his journey every step of the way.


We are especially grateful to the multidisciplinary team—nurses, therapists, and support staff—whose skill, dedication, and empathy were instrumental in Brian’s remarkable progress. The physical, occupational, and speech therapists worked tirelessly, not only helping him regain function but also instilling hope and motivation.


Special thanks as well to the recreational therapists and case managers who saw Brian as more than just a patient. Your efforts to connect with his personality and interests made a significant impact on his emotional and mental well-being, and your collaborative approach to his cognitive and behavioral challenges truly stood out.


Watching Brian grow stronger and more independent during his time with you was nothing short of inspiring. Your care has changed his life—and ours.


For families navigating the difficult journey of TBI recovery, we can’t recommend Neuro RehabCare of Scottsdale enough. Thank you for your extraordinary work, your compassion, and the peace of mind you gave our family during such a challenging time.

 

With heartfelt appreciation,

On behalf of the Meacham Family
