Rancho Levels of Cognitive Functioning

The Rancho Levels of Cognitive Functioning (RLOCF) Scale describes stages of recovery after a closed brain injury. The rehabilitation team uses this guide to see how someone with a brain injury is healing. The RLOCF Family Guide can help you learn more about what to expect, and how you can help someone with a brain injury. You can find the RLOCF Family Guide in different languages (click here) or use the RLOCF Reference Card (click here) to learn more.

There are 8 levels of recovery. You can watch examples of behaviors and what the patient may do at each level in the RLOCF DVD. If you are interested in renting or buying the DVD, please contact Rancho Research Institute (click here).
