Purpose: This study explores gains in function, measured by the Mayo-Portland Adaptability Inventory-4 (MPAI-4) and qualitative interviews, of individuals who participated in a Post Hospital Interdisciplinary Brain Injury Rehabilitation – Residential (PHIDBIR-R) program as part of their recovery from brain injury. Methods: The study uses a mixed methods design to identify correlates and explore pathways to functional recovery. Change scores from the MPAI-4 were derived to identify participants with greatest functional improvement. Qualitative interviews were employed to understand PHIDBIR-R program constructs associated with functional improvement. MPAI-4 data were derived from a bank of 135 PHIDBIR-R programs in 22 states. Participants were adults who sustained a brain injury and participated in a PHIDBIR-R program. 57 participants were identified as highest scorers; 10 completed semi-structured interviews. Results: Data were analyzed using constant comparison procedures and rigorous credibility techniques. Thirteen themes within four categories (support, therapies, continuum of care, environment of care) emerged, reflecting participants’ understanding of constructs contributing to positive outcomes. Conclusions: The results provided a cogent framework for program development, stakeholder program selection, and advocate and legislator considerations.
