title: [Rehabilitation nursing: thoughts on a specific role].
abstract: This article presents some thoughts about nursing care rehabilitation. The specifications and the evolution of the place of practice, as well as the patients' needs, make the professional's role continue after initial learning. In relation to some particularities of the patient's rehabilitation needs, we suggest exploration of concepts allowing to develop the nurse's role in rehabilitation. The co-animation of the therapeutic project, health education and the relation to the patient will be the guiding principles to investigate our practice. While a break between the initial training and the practice of rehabilitation seems inevitable, it will be important to determine the nature of the continuous training which we can propose.
