Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation is a medical process aimed at restoring or improving lost or limited physical, functional, psychological, and social abilities caused by congenital conditions or diseases acquired later in life. It helps individuals become independent in daily life through medical, psychological, and social support.
Rehabilitation is a multidisciplinary approach. The process, methods, and structure may change depending on each stage of recovery.
In the first stage, medical rehabilitation focuses on preventing or eliminating disability and functional limitations. In the second stage, psychological rehabilitation helps stabilize the patient’s emotional state and reduce stress. In the third stage, vocational rehabilitation focuses on identifying and developing the individual’s work abilities and helping them reintegrate into professional life.
The main goal of rehabilitation is to reduce the negative effects of physical or psychological impairments, support social adaptation, and help individuals reintegrate into society, including vulnerable groups such as accident victims, socially at-risk individuals, and patients with chronic disabilities.
