Abstract

Multiple types of injuries, such as traumatic spinal cord injuries, increase the population in a situation of physical disability, reaching up to 18% (National Administrative Department of Statistics, DANE - 2005), who must modify the way they carry out their activities, reaching to achieve said development in a dependent or semi-independent manner. This is why health services must seek recovery from a not only clinical point of view, but also taking into account the meaning of comprehensive rehabilitation. Based on this, this article presents the results of the research regarding the design and construction of a program that, through physiotherapy management, optimizes residual capacity and achieves recovery and functional independence in mobility activities at home, through a guide. that describes the development of said activities
in the most optimal and independent way possible; study carried out through documentary review. After achieving skill in mobility activities at home, these skills can be transferred to environments such as work, social and recreational environments. Albarrán and Alonso (2006) say that this not only benefits the individual but also to the community to which it belongs.
