What's in a word? Distinguishing between Habilitation and Re-habilitation

Abstract: The purpose of this commentary is to identify the key differences between the term Habilitation and Rehabilitation. Using historical and contemporary understandings, this commentary aims to disentangle these two terms from a developmental perspective. It is argued that these two concepts are distinct and should be appropriately reflected in international literature and practice.

“…Children diagnosed with vision impairment have limited or denied access to observational learning, dependent on the severity and classification of the diagnosis. For children who have had vision impairment since birth/early infancy, habilitation techniques are used to support their orientation, mobility, and independent living skills as they transition into adulthood [ 26 , 27 ]. Despite emerging research in the field of habilitation and developing support strategies for independent living skills in areas such as dressing [ 28 , 29 ], consideration of sleep (or the sleep routine) as an independent living skill has been overlooked.…”

“…Steenbeek and colleagues (2005) concluded in their study about children with cerebral palsy and treatment with botulinum toxin that GAS should improve at least two levels in median during an intervention of 10 weeks to make a clinically relevant difference. The target group in our study has limited access to individualized rehabilitation and fewer opportunities to take part in habilitation activities (Hayton and Dimitriou, 2019), and one reason for this may be that people The italic values are represents the (mean value).

“…Pediatric rehabilitation, physiologically centered, refers to supporting the reacquisition of previously learned or developed skills. Focusing on recovery, pediatric rehabilitation uses training and therapy to help children relearn skills that have been lost because of illness, injury, or disability (Hayton & Dimitriou, 2019). In contrast, pediatric habilitation, developmentally centered, focuses on supporting a child to learn a skill for the first time with techniques used in everyday settings.…”
