JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe grave situation of rehabilitation service in medical institutes in Japan was schematically demonstrated and the lack of effective service was attributed to its specific cultural surroundings and a bias of medical interest under that influence.
The author stressed that the establishment of more potent and comprehensive central rehabilitation service is essential considering the less advanced social security services in this country, and more active participations of respective clinical specialities regarding rehabilitation as one of their principal duties are necessitated than they are in European countries and the United States at present.
Every attending doctor should take the responsibility to the results of rehabilitation just as he has taken in the therapeutic work, and the central rehabilitation service can act only as a cooperator.
In order to develop and complete this dualism in rehabilitation service, it was suggested that two kinds of rehabilitation specialist will be taken into account: the one a rehabilitation specialist in existing clinical speciality, the other a new specialist which is quite independent of any existing specialities.View full abstractDownload PDF (808K)
