Abstract

While the physiotherapists and occupational therapists complement each other in their assessment of patients and inform the reader about both sensorimotor and cognitive functions and abilities, they omit some of the specific criteria for rehabilitation. Despite the omissions, the information provided is specific to the patients' function and needs.
