What is Neurological Rehabilitation?
Neurological rehabilitation is a dynamic process where remediation and compensatory strategies are employed to support the individual to maximize their functional outcome. Barnes (2003) defines neurological rehabilitation as an active process where a disabled individual is assisted to gain knowledge and skills to optimize their physical, psychological, and social functioning.
