    • Help patients transition from therapy to independent living, ensuring they are prepared to manage daily tasks outside of a clinical environment.
  • Advocacy and Community Resources:

    • Advocate for patients to ensure access to necessary resources and support services.
    • Provide patients and families with information about community programs, support groups, and other resources that may assist in their rehabilitation.
