      The Health Sector Strategic Plan does not specifically mention rehabilitation. However, there are services provided at the level of general or regional referral and National referral hospitals for those with physical disabilities. A focus on orthopedic services. In some facilities, one may find functional physiotherapy units. Recently Mental health facilities have been promoted and placed in many hospitals. Most rehabilitation services are placed in silos depending on the demands of the service e.g. obstetric fistula repair and rehabilitation will be found in the Gynaecology units on preplanned outreach camps.
