Rehabilitation remains a globally discussed topic, unsurprising considering that over a billion individuals, roughly 15% of the world's population, live with disabilities. A recent estimate reveals that 2.41 billion people worldwide have diseases impacting daily functions, potentially benefiting from rehabilitation services. This underscores the need, with one in three individuals requiring rehabilitation during illness or injury. Restorative rehabilitation targets impairments—physical, cognitive, or respiratory—aiming for optimal function recovery. Popular for post-surgery, illness, or acute events like trauma or stroke, it maximizes function. For patient’s no longer in short-term rehab, restorative nursing can bridge the transition from medical care to home.
