The definitions under 6 CCR 1011-1, Chapter 4, Part 2, Definitions, shall apply unless the context dictates otherwise. In addition, the following definitions shall apply:
2.1 "Occupational therapy" means a rehabilitation procedure guided by a qualified therapist who, under medical supervision, uses any purposeful activity to gain from the patient the desired physical function and/or mental response.2.2 "Rehabilitation hospital" means a hospital that is intended to provide a community with a type of facility, licensed as a hospital, capable of rendering quality service to those patients not acutely ill and not requiring surgical, intensive, maternity, or extensive radiological or clinical laboratory services, on a direct admission thereto or as a secondary referral admission subject to the clinical judgment of attending physicians, and who may, therefore, receive a relatively high level of special medical and nursing care directed primarily to a rehabilitative or restorative process commensurate with the individual clinical diagnosis. In general, but subject to specific conditions governing a particular hospital within a given community, it is intended that a rehabilitation hospital offer its services on the basis of a full spectrum of community need without singular identification with any specific age groups or economic status of patients served.6 CCR 1011-1 Chapter 10 Part 2
