Rehabilitation

Rehabilitation becomes an indispensable ingredient to restore functioning or manage the impact of a medical event or condition on a person’s functioning. It also seeks to reduce the extent and severity of a disability following this event or medical condition. Consequently, several factors influence the success of this rehabilitation, whether in the form of physical, occupational, or speech therapy. At the top of this list is the person’s motivation, determination, and perseverance during the rehabilitation process. Whether success is a reversal of the effects of the event or illness, or improved coping and management of the condition, the best predictor of a successful outcome is the attitude of the person involved.
