Online published on 10 August, 2020. Abstract Cancer rehabilitation is a program that helps people with cancer in maintaining and refurbishing the physical, emotional and social well-being. In cancer, a person is considered to be a survivor from the time he is diagnosed, to the treatment, and until he remains alive. The outcomes of cancer are minimal for some survivors; these patients can return to a normal life once the treatment is complete. However, many survivors do experience physical or psychosocial effects of cancer and its treatment. This paper highlights the effect of cancer rehabilitation on specific physical and psycho-social impairments of cancer survivors.
