Taking into account the multifunctional disorders and consequences of oncological diseases and their treatment, rehabilitation in oncology has many goals and is aimed at restoring the physical, emotional, social, role and cognitive functioning of the patient, as well as returning the patient to previous labor activity. The principles of rehabilitation measures vary considerably from country to country, depending on the social security system in which they are included. In most European countries and in theUnited States of America, rehabilitation activities are mainly carried out on an outpatient basis. Whereas inGermanythere is a unique system in which rehabilitation is performed mainly in a hospital environment. This article presents an overview of rehabilitation measures in oncology practice conducted in different countries.
