Reflection/Analysis:
The rehabilitation of the patient requires a lot of attention for his mental and physical state, so in order to help the patient fully it’s crucial to understand what kind of symptoms he/she has and how to accommodate and avoid any kind of further disturbance or injury for the patient. The rehabilitation requires the care taker or medical professional to have the patient do certain exercises or probably wear a tech device that helps with the recovery of certain body parts, so all these information needs to be considered as a factor that might be in the way of the outcome needed from the rehabilitation.
