Dr Lalabalavu states that rehabilitation goes beyond just physical recovery; it aims to restore dignity and empower individuals to live independently and meaningfully.

It embodies far more than mere recovery; it is about restoring dignity, enhancing the quality of life, and empowering individuals of all ages to live independently and meaningfully, enabling them to participate in school, work, and community life, while providing care for themselves and their families.
