Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation is one of the main pillars of the patient’s care path and its relevance will grow following the significant increase in life expectancy and related chronic diseases and disabilities.
The aim of rehabilitation is to empower individuals to achieve maximum independence in their daily lives, and actively engage in routine activities. It aims at optimizing patient well-being by addressing impairments, limitations, and restrictions across various domains, including mobility, vision, cognition, and psychological functions. Rehabilitation constitutes a vital component of healthcare services and may be delivered across diverse settings based on individual needs and circumstances.
As an integral part of the continuum of care, practitioners must consider both personal and environmental factors when designing treatment plans. Furthermore, they must have the capability to document and access pertinent information related to their patients’ rehabilitation journey from all sectors of the healthcare ecosystem.
