Rehabilitation

Product Details :

Rehabilitation is care that can help you get back, keep, or improve abilities that you need for daily life. These abilities may be physical, mental, and/or cognitive (thinking and learning). You may have lost them because of a disease or injury, or as a side effect from medical treatment. Rehabilitation can improve your daily life and functioning.

The overall goal of rehabilitation is to help you get your abilities back and regain independence. But the specific goals are different for each person. They depend on what caused the problem, whether the cause is ongoing or temporary, which abilities you lost, and how severe the problem is. For example,

A person who has had a stroke may need rehabilitation to be able to dress or bathe without help.

An active person who has had a heart attack may go through cardiac rehabilitation to try to return to exercising.

Someone with a lung disease may get pulmonary rehabilitation to be able to breathe better and improve their quality of life.
