Update: Visiting under COVID-19 pandemic restrictions
Thank you to all friends and family/whānau for your continued understanding whilst we have COVID 19 pandemic restrictions in place. We are carefully expanding visitation procedures for Wellington in a controlled manner to maintain a safe environment for our at-risk patients. This means we will still need to control traffic in and out of our Wellington facility as people coming in and out of ABI services increases the risk of viral spread to all of our clients and staff. As Auckland remains at alert Level 4, unfortunately no visits can be permitted to the ABI Auckland Intensive and Residential sites. Our teams will continue to support your loved ones with their rehabilitation programmes and help facilitate connection with you via video or phone. READ MORE
Hello and Welcome

Welcome. We aim to provide a holistic and nurturing approach that encompasses all aspects of well-being for the benefit of our clients and their families beneath the expanded wings of our rehabilitation services.
ABI Rehabilitation Services
ABI is the leading provider of rehabilitation in NZ with specialist intensive and residential sites in Auckland and Wellington for people with TBI. ABI also provides community rehabilitation for those with TBI and other injuries and has a specialist paediatric team skilled in working with parents, schools and children with a wide range of injuries and disabilities.
Most of our community services can occur at home or another place of your choice, for example, school, work, kindy or at the ABI offices. The ABI team will talk to you about your preference.
Founded in 1996, ABI Rehab was the first rehabilitation service in Australasia with CARF accreditation.
The ABI Experience
ABI has a team of approximately 300. All the clinicians have specialist training in rehabilitation and a single-minded focus on achieving outcomes. We believe people in New Zealand have the right to excellent rehabilitation that is evidence-based and outcome focussed.
We invest in training and research to maintain an international standard of care. As an organisation, ABI is driven to lead, develop and benchmark rehabilitation services in New Zealand.
Clients at ABI will experience what we believe is a unique team approach to their rehabilitation journey. Our rehabilitation team is varied across the disciplines and includes medical specialists, psychology, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, speech and language therapy, nursing, social work, dietitian and rehab assistants.
The ABI teams are all committed to working towards the goals that the client and family set. ABI firmly believes that clients and their families-whānau are an integral part of the team.
What is a Brain Injury?
Damage to the brain can occur immediately due to the injury, or it may develop from swelling or bleeding that can happen after the injury. After an injury, brain tissue may swell causing it to take up more room in the skull.
Work for ABI Rehabilitation
ABI has provided Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and Stroke rehabilitation services in New Zealand for over 20 years. We are passionate about delivering a service that exceeds the expectations of the client, families-whānau.
