Aleah Mayo · Answer 1

a) when the client is admitted to the hospital.

Explanation:

Rehabilitation for a client who has an injury, a cerebrovascular accident, starts at the period of admission to the clinic.

The first aim of rehabilitation is to further avoid deformities.

This can be done via techniques as positioning the client in the right position in bed, adjusting the client's position with time, and making sure every part of the client body is in proper positioning.
