    Background:

    • Disease prevention is a primary physician goal.
    • When prevention fails, rehabilitation becomes crucial.
    • Elderly patients require specialized care for successful outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the importance of rehabilitation in patient care.
    • To emphasize the benefits of a multidisciplinary team for elderly rehabilitation.
    • To identify patient groups that benefit most from rehabilitation.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of rehabilitation principles and goals.
    • Discussion of the role of multidisciplinary teams in geriatric care.
    • Identification of conditions where rehabilitation is particularly effective.

    Main Results:

    • Elderly patients can achieve successful rehabilitation outcomes.
    • Multidisciplinary teams are essential for meeting the special needs of elderly patients.
    • Rehabilitation is beneficial for patients with arthritis, post-stroke, post-joint replacement, and post-amputation.

    Conclusions:

    • Rehabilitation is a vital component of patient care when primary and secondary prevention are insufficient.
    • A multidisciplinary approach optimizes rehabilitation success, particularly in the elderly.
    • Rehabilitation aims to place patients in the least restrictive environment possible.
