In modern society acting independently is of supreme importance -be it personal care,day to day activity, cooking, studies, for that matter anything that requires human endeavour . It is here that a disabled person suffers most ; socially, economically ,psychologically and emotionally.
Because of physical or mental handicaps a disabled person cannot act independently in many spheres of life and hence faces many problems in his social adjustments. His incapacity generates emotional problems like apathy, self pity and resentment and he tends to isolate himself from society.
It is the collective responsibility of the able bodied to rehabilitate these handicapped individuals. The role of rehabilitation is to minimize disability and handicap and help a handicapped person lead a useful life within his limitations.
