Rehabilitation Nursing
Rehabilitation Nursing is a specialized field of nursing focused on helping patients recover and regain their independence after illness, injury, or surgery. Nurses in this area work with individuals who may have physical, emotional, or cognitive challenges, providing care and support tailored to each patient's needs. They often collaborate with a team of healthcare professionals, including physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech therapists.
The primary goal of rehabilitation nursing is to enhance the quality of life for patients by promoting their functional abilities and encouraging self-care. Nurses assess patients' progress, educate them about their conditions, and develop personalized care plans. This holistic approach helps patients achieve their rehabilitation goals and reintegrate into their daily lives.
