Abstract
During the war in Croatia, with the great accession of young wounded people
with lesion of the spinal cord suddenly appeared increased needs for the most
succcsfull rehabilitation. We made this rehabilitation program and achived that
patients are occupied with maximum angagement 5-6 hours daily.
By changing certa in segments of the program and trying to motivate patients with
therapeutical trips, going out on the grounds, with visiting the town (Varaždin,
Zagreb), with sport activities and occupational therapy we succeded to avoid the every
clay monotony and to keep the motivation of patients on high level. As the result of our
work, now we have better rehabilitation treatment, faster restitution of preserved
locomotor functions, faster achieving of indepeclence in self-care activities, as we ll as
shortening of the hospita lisation period.
