Case Management

Cota’s ABI Case Managers provide practical individualized support in the community to adults 16-64 years of age living with an acquired brain injury across the Toronto and in South York Region.

Cota’s Toronto-based ABI case Managers are members of Cota’s Integrated Service Teams (ISTs) which are multidisciplinary teams that provide case management services to multiple target populations within defined geographic catchment areas. Each Cota IST is comprised of case managers that specialize in Mental Health, Acquired Brain Injury, Substance Use, Dual Diagnosis and Geriatric Mental Health.  The ISTs receive support from consulting psychiatrists.

Cota’s IST services are aligned with the geographic areas of Toronto-based Ontario Health Teams (OHTs), as follows:

  • Cota’s North York IST is aligned with both the North Western Toronto OHT and North York Health Partners OHT

  • Cota’s Scarborough IST is aligned with the Scarborough OHT

  • Cota’s Toronto West IST is aligned with both the Toronto West OHT and Toronto Mid-WestOHT

  • Cota’s Toronto East IST is aligned with the Downtown East OHT and East Toronto Health Partners OHT
