 The of rehabilitation is to minimize the potential to restore a person who has an important or an incapacity for service or work, as a result of a service injury or disease to at least some physical and psychological state and at least the some social, vocational and educational status as he or she had before the injury or disease.

Aims and scope

The rehabilitation process and outcome is a peer reviewed. Open access journal that covers all aspects of the rehabilitations process and looks at the conceptual and classification issues, interventions and measurement development related to rehabilitation outcomes research. The journals broad scope includes rehabilitation of hearing, speech and language, vocational rehabilitation recovery from physical trauma, injury and management of long-term conditions are also included. Further, scientific conditions in the area of learning and developmental disabilities are also welcome. Measuring process, outcomes of treatment and quality of life will be addressed. The journal is interdisciplinary in nature and invites scientific contributions from basic scientists, applied clinical and non-clinical researchers if their work is clearly related to rehabilitation outcomes. Advances in bioengineering and neuroscience with relevance to rehabilitation will also be considered. The journal welcomes unsolicited article proposals.

The main focus of rehabilitation is on:

  • Achieving as full a physical and psychological recovery as possible
  • Improving quality of life through going life management skills, a sense of direction for the future and resilience

  • Rehabilitation social connectedness to family and community
  •  Finding a new valued role within the community
  •  Learning to understand and self-manage physical and mental health conditions to the best of the person’s ability
  •   Assisting the person to return to safe and meaningful work at the earliest possible time to minimize further harm to physical and mental health and wellbeing through long term absence from employment; and
  •    Reducing the human and economic cost of disability for ADF members, former members, their families and the broader community.

 Goal attainment scaling is central to achieving the aims of a DVA rehabilitation program. This is because the goal attainment scaling process provides an opportunity for veterans to reflect on their life satisfaction and identify goals and objectives to help them start to make life changes, or set a new direction, after a service injury or disease. The support of a rehabilitation provider in confidence and a sense of hope for the future.

By definition, community represents the population of all species living and interacting in an area at a particular time. Population can within limits, adapt to changes in environmental changes is believed by most biologists to be evaluation, the change in a population genetic makeup through successive generation. A group of organisms constitute population. Each population has characteristics like, natality, morality, age structure, growth dynamics and so on. But when several populations share a common habitat and its resources, they interact among themselves and develop into a biotic community or simply, a community.

Structure of community:

 Community may be small, consisting of few populations in a small space, or large comprising several species populations in a large area. The community structures, composition and other characteristics can be readily described by visual observation without actual measurement. This is a qualitative approach which is easier than the quantitative population analysis where measurements are actually made.

 Communities usually, categories by the ecologists in various ways primarily based habitat features like water availability, high exposure or other habitat features. For instance, depending on the amount of water availability, plant communities may be hydropathic. Similarly, communities growing on conditions of abundant light are called helophytic and those growing in shade Scio phytic. Identically communities growing on various habitats designated as desert communities, mountain communities and estuarine communities and so on.

In general, a community is dynamic since it changes over time. This dynamic nature is reflected in the succession of organisms in a habitat. A series of changes results in the development of a relatively stable community, which maintains its structure and influences the climate of the area. Such as stable and mature community is called a climax community while, communities of successional stages are called seral communities. The plant community structures, composition and other characterizes can be described in both qualitative or quantitative means.
