A glimpse of community-based rehabilitation in China.

As in other developing countries, community-based rehabilitation (CBR) in China is very important. However, because of differences in the social system, economy, and cultural level, it is impossible to implement a uniform model of CBR. This paper introduces material to show how CBR in China tends to be spontaneous. Experience of CBR stations in Shenyang has initiated a new approach to CBR within the cultural characteristics of China.
