This document discusses the need for rehabilitation services in earthquake affected districts in Nepal. It notes that an estimated 1,500-2,000 people will need ongoing rehabilitation support due to earthquake injuries, but there are currently no rehabilitation services in the health system. It also outlines pre-existing rehabilitation needs not related to the earthquake, including 1.94% of the population living with disabilities. The document then details the development of rehabilitation units in district hospitals that have served over 4,600 clients. It argues that policies support integrating rehabilitation services into the health system to address the growing needs of non-communicable diseases and an aging population. Ways forward are proposed to develop and sustain rehabilitation services.
