Abstract
Sources of rehabilitation medicine, the need for rehabilitation and its practice in Croatia were studied, based on available data. The study revealed that current practice has advanced since the country’s independence, but that there are many shortcomings; adequate care is not provided to all who could benefit from it, and there is wastage of resources.
