Abstract
Activating nursing based on the criteria of the long-term care insurance may be understood as a second specific and nursing approach of rehabilitation beneath medical rehabilitation. Activating nursing is unspecific, characterized by the norms and guidelines of the long-term care insurance, but defined as the general norm of practical nursing. A professional nursing definition for a specific concept is lacking just as funding of nursing science. Adhering to activating nursing as a nursing complement to medical rehabilitation in the framework of long-term care insurance requires professional development and funding. Furthermore, more support of social law is necessary, which depends on professional nursing and nursing science-based indication and the intervention approach. The article develops an approach--based on a study about rehabilitation of people in need for care--and reflects on implementation and acceptance by people in the need of care.
