title: Early mobilization in acute spinal cord injury. A collaborative approach.
abstract: It is apparent that if comprehensive care of the spinal cord-injured patient is to be provided, there must be a team effort. The members of the team can use the strategies described to develop a good working relationship that will lead to optimum care for the patient. Using the rehabilitation team model may promote the process of team development and interaction. This leads to appreciation of each team member's contributions and demonstrates how team members compliment each other in the treatment of the SCI patient.
