Higher brain dysfunction inhibits social rehabilitation in patients with stroke or brain injuries. First, magnetic resonance imaging should be performed in the acute phase to predict higher brain dysfunction in the chronic phase. Second, patients' complaints should be carefully considered. Vocational rehabilitation is provided after medical rehabilitation from various sources. Information for social support is provided. The homepage of the National Rehabilitation Center for Persons with Disabilities is a resource for such information. We plan vocational rehabilitation for such patients. We provide medical certificates, such as that required to file for disability pension, because economical support is crucial. Peer support should also be provided to patients and their families. Recovery from higher brain dysfunction occurs gradually over a prolonged period. Therefore, patients should be offered continuing treatment on an outpatient basis in the chronic phase.
