    Author: Heinz C.
    Journal: Z Unfallchir Versicherungsmed; 1991; 84(3):129-31. PubMed ID: 1760233.
    Abstract:
    The capacity for the rehabilitation of patients who have been affected by a brain injury does not meet the needs. Additional capacities are to be created in Switzerland. It is discussed whether it is preferable to create specialised institutions for the rehabilitation of the brain injured patient or whether these patients should rather be admitted to general rehabilitation centers. The advantages and disadvantages of these two options are discussed. The advantages of the admission of brain injured patients to general rehabilitation centers is stressed and the demand for special strategies and staff is described.
