ABSTRACT
Perceptual-cognitive impairments that occur following right hemisphere brain damage and its circuits are common and interfere with recovery. The therapeutic intervention incorporates principles of neuropsychology and guiding techniques for restoration of function and maximal independence within the scope of patient's challenges. Identification of impairments, which are not physically seen in the patient like his hemiplegia are observed by the therapist as he performs various functional activities. These observations assist the therapist to draw her own inferences, to plan appropriate therapeutic strategies and to set short and long term goals. Comprehensive and holistic treatment approach is essential to improve the functional activities and spatial awareness, Patient's active participation, family and social support enhances the rehabilitation programme
