Rehabilitation is the specialized process that enables an individual to regain optimal recovery of mind and body following a disabling illness or accident. It allows a person to regain maximum recovery with an aim to return to the community and their former lifestyle where possible. Rehabilitation requires the cooperative effort of the individual, their family and the members of the interdisciplinary health care team.
