Abstract

Objective: This study was planned in order to determine the people who need physiotherapy and rehabilitation in Turkey and who may encounter obstacles in accessing services by investigating the population characteristics and to discuss the appropriateness of telerehabilitation services for these people and the need to integrate them into the health system. Method: In October 2020, information pages of official institutions and organizations in Turkey were scanned. The general demographic indicators of the Turkish people by years, addiction and mobilization levels, major diseases in the population and the number of hospital admissions were investigated and recorded. Results: In Turkey, the elderly population is increasing every year, and with the increase in the elderly population, the dependency ratio and the incidence of chronic diseases increase. While hospital admissions have increased each year, they have decreased during the COVID 19 period. According to the characteristics of the Turkish population, the number of people who need physiotherapy and rehabilitation is high. It is expected that the need will increase and there will be problems in accessing rehabilitation services in the coming years. Conclusion: In societies that are aging and have barriers to access to health services, the need for telerehabilitation applications will increase. In these societies, telerehabilitation practices should be integrated into the health system
