Our main fields of research interest concerning lifestyle topics in Rehabilitation are the development and implementation of:
“Costs of care and cure are high and even increasing annually. Cost-effectivity of our rehabilitation efforts is therefor important.
An active lifestyle has been proven to be beneficial for health in a number of patient categories and in people with (physical) disabilities. Furthermore, being physically fit strongly supports the process of recovery and rehabilitation. By stimulating fitness of our patients, we enable our patients to recover faster and reach a higher level of recovery, thereby, improving the (cost)effectiveness of the rehabilitation.”
