Rehabilitative or restorative care maximises optimal functioning, enabling patients to regain or retain their independence following the debilitating effects of illness or injury.
Rehabilitation medicine and activities offer strategies that reduce musculoskeletal pain, targeted approaches to alleviate movement-related pain, and interventions to optimise patients' function despite the persistence of pain.
End-of-life care is support for people in their last months or years of life. It helps patients live as well as possible until they die with dignity.
