To reduce the length of stay in rehabilitation hospitals, rehabilitation programs for stroke was refined. We emphasized the importance of strengthening the uninvolved lower limb, and administered stand-up and sit-down exercises 400-600 times per day. This was easily possible when performed in group therapy. By this, length of stay in a rehabilitation hospital has become shorter, FIM scores at discharge have become higher, and ratio of patients discharged to their own home has become higher.
