المستخلص
Health Services are changing all over the world , regarding epidemiological, economical, socio-political aspects correlated and stimulated by scientific and technological advances and tools . For our point of view cornerstones are :
- Disability is part of the human experience.
- WHO recognizes that a world where all people attain the highest possible standard of health and well-being is only possible if health systems are inclusive of people with disability.
- Countries need to shift towards a service delivery system rooted in the communities, reaching out and empowering people with disability
As embedded in WHO framework, Rehabilitation is one of the core health services, along with promotion, prevention, treatment, and palliative care. By optimizing functioning, rehabilitation significantly contributes to the realization SDG3 on health and well-being. An individual who can enjoy good standard of health is more able and confident to fully participate economically, culturally, politically on equal basis with others, thus contributing to the realization of several other SDGs and of the overarching “leave no one behind” principle. Therefore, increasing access to quality rehabilitation services can significantly improve population’s health outcomes and foster inclusive, sustainable development.
