Korean Physical Rehabilitation Centre Expands with Aid of UN Women's Guild
Caption Description
As a result of a gift of $16,000 from the UN Women's Guild, the UN Korean Reconstruction Agency (UNKRA) has erected four more buildings at the National Rehabilitation Centre at Tongnae, Korea, for a children's section which includes a kitchen, bath house, physiotherapy room and dormitories, all equipped with this money. An important part of the treatment is to help the patients to lead normal lives again, in spite of their disabilities.
A general view of the Centre's physiotherapy room. Young patients from the children's ward struggle for hours with difficult exercises so that they can be like other children again. Seen in the background are the ""staircase"" and the ""walking machine"", two other methods of straightening and strengthening limbs twisted by polio.
