The objectives

The main objective is to achieve and/or maintain the greatest possible autonomy in daily life activities.

Geriatric rehabilitation aims to give patients the opportunity to achieve the maximum possible autonomy in order to return home with or without the help of a third party.

In rehabilitation, the home will be assessed to determine if a return home is feasible and/or if modifications will be necessary to ensure a stay with minimal danger.
