PY - 2016 T2 - MD Anderson Manual of Psychosocial Oncology AB - Ultimately the goal of physical medicine and rehabilitation is to restore an individual to the highest level of function. By definition, functioning is usually thought of in mechanical terms—walking, running, and climbing. In the sports world, it is a question of swimming, soccer, basketball, cycling, skiing, skating, etc. We often take for granted movement or the daily activities of getting dressed, bathed, or going to the restroom—that is, until we no longer have the ability to perform these tasks independently.
