ACUTE AND CHRONIC REHABILITATION FOR THE AGEING BRAIN

Rehabilitation after stroke is extensively researched and there is no doubt of its efficacy irrespective of age and extent of disability. In other conditions seen in the ageing brain such as dementia or Parkinson ’ s disease , rehabilitation is less commonly practiced particularly in the older age group despite strong evidence as to its benefits. Th is presentation will argue that much is known and the priority issues relate to gaps between the evidence and usual clinical practice.
