A comprehensive rehabilitation plan typically involves a multidisciplinary team, including physical therapists, occupational therapists, social workers, and physicians, to address the diverse needs of the patient.
The primary goal of rehabilitation is to help patients regain as much functional independence as possible, enabling them to return to their daily activities.
Occupational therapy focuses on helping patients improve their ability to perform activities of daily living (ADLs), such as dressing, bathing, and eating.
Neuroplasticity is the brain’s ability to adapt and reorganize itself by forming new neural connections, which is crucial for recovery in neurological rehabilitation.
The case manager's role in rehabilitation is to coordinate care, facilitate communication among healthcare providers, and ensure that the patient receives the appropriate rehabilitation services to achieve their recovery goals.
