It was developed primarily to meet the needs of young adults and those of working age, but aspects of the specialty, particularly relating to technical aids, provision of wheelchairs, orthotics or prosthetics, are relevant to people of all ages. The principal aims are to identify the impairments that limit activity and daily tasks; optimise physical and cognitive functioning; and modify personal and environmental factors to enable greater participation and quality of life. Rehabilitation medicine covers a large number of disabling conditions and is broadly divided into four main areas: neurological rehabilitation spinal cord injury rehabilitation limb loss or deficiency rehabilitation and prosthetics musculoskeletal rehabilitation http://www.jrcptb.org.uk/specialties/rehabilitation-medicine RD
