[Neurorehabilitation for stroke or brain injury patients]

The neurorehabilitation of brain injury patients usually begins at the hospital, during the acute care, where the aim is essentially at limiting the complications and at beginning the reeducation. The patients benefit then mostly from an inpatient and/or outpatient neurorehabilitation. During all these phases, the rehabilitation declines according to its 3 dimensions, namely: reeducation, rehabilitation and reintegration. In all this process, it is important to remain watchful to the invisible handicaps, such as cognitive impairments, post-traumatic brain injury complaints, behavioural or mood changes. These represent a potential obstacle to the social and professional reintegration.
