RESUMO
We have read several publications of great authority on the neurological profession in the last two years in which were expressed assessments of the current situation combined with opinions about neurology and the necessity to reorganize neurological patient care. These articles took up the question of neurorehabilitation too. The authors, who on a daily basis, deal with the rehabilitation of people with disabilities as a consequence of neurological conditions, summarize some important definitions of rehabilitation medicine and the present system of neurological rehabilitation, as it is defined by the rehabilitation profession.

The history of rehabilitation of people with disabilities as a consequence of neurological conditions goes back to more than four decades in Hungary. The authors describe its history, how this service is organized nowadays, questions of specialization, scientific activity and quality improvement. They emphasise: any form of neurorehabilitation service (special neurorehabilitation department or programme of a multiprofile rehabilitation unit) must meet the same criteria. Quality assurance will be provided by a new accreditation system.
