Tele-rehabilitation

Tele-rehabilitation is the delivery of rehabilitation services remotely using information and communication technology, enabling therapy and cognitive training to occur in a person's home or community setting rather than exclusively in clinical facilities. For people with disabilities, tele-rehabilitation platforms can provide brain training games, physical therapy exercises, speech therapy, and other interventions accessible anytime and anywhere via computers or tablets. This approach maximizes rehabilitation time, reduces travel burden on families, and lowers costs for health systems. For people with intellectual disabilities such as Down syndrome, web-based tele-rehabilitation platforms can offer personalized cognitive exercises that maintain or improve abilities like memory, attention, and visual-spatial orientation, complementing face-to-face therapy sessions.
