    Abstract:
    The Guttmann Institute is a hospital specialised in the comprehensive rehabilitation and medical/surgical treatment of persons suffering from spinal cord injury or from other severe physical disabilities. It opened in Barcelona in 1965 and was the first hospital in Spain dedicated to the treatment of paraplegic and tetraplegic patients, and the one which introduced into Spain the comprehensive approach to spinal cord injury developed by Sir Ludwig Guttmann at the Stoke Mandeville Hospital in the UK. The Guttmann Institute Foundation is a non-profit-making foundation and its hospital, the Guttmann Institute, forms part of the Public Service Hospital Network. The Guttmann Institute has a wide-ranging, multi-disciplinary group of staff made up of specialised professionals; and it has the appropriate resources for the provision of thorough medical attention from a technical, scientific and human point of view.
