The primary goal of the department's rehabilitation therapists is to improve the functions of the affected spinal joints or segments, improve the patient's mobility and, accordingly, ensure his maximum independence. An important component of successful rehabilitation is the determination of specific goals, which must be achieved during the treatment process, taking into account the rehabilitation potential of the patient. The key role is given to the goals related to professional activities and human health. The rehabilitation treatment for the patients of working age primarily aims to return a person to work as soon as possible, while the main goal of the rehabilitation of older patients is to achieve maximum independence in everyday life and performance of everyday tasks.
