[Conditions and results of medico-social rehabilitation at the rehabilitation centre of Cologne University (author's transl)].

From its establishment in 1966 the Rehabilitation Center of Cologne University has documented its medical, social and prevocational evaluation findings, and subjected the prognoses given to periodical follow-up verifications. A statistical overview of the years 1971 through 1978 describes the numerical development of in- and outpatient rehabilitees, diagnostic groupings, and follow-up results. Development, organisational patterns, and working approaches at the centre as well as the importance of integrated prevocational training are underlined, as is the need for more medical rehabilitation facilities.
