Recently, several studies concerning the need for neuropsychologists in early or in out-patient rehabilitation settings have been submitted; however, an analysis of classical in-patient neurological rehabilitation which is most important by virtue of its numerical impact has not yet been performed. An empirical study focussing on the need for neuropsychologists during in-patient rehabilitation (phases C and D) is discussed. The two-year study records deficits observed among all patients with damage to the central nervous system (n = 788) admitted to a neurological rehabilitation clinic in north-western Germany. The deficits were divided into the following groups: memory, visual-constructional, deficits involving the planning process, attention deficits and emotional disturbances. Depending on the deficits displayed, patients were prescribed either individual or group therapy, or a combination of both. An empirical pattern of job distribution for neuropsychologists is calculated for the first time based upon findings of the study, which concern the time required for neuropsychological diagnostics, neuropsychological therapy, consultation of relatives and a fixed time-budget established for team supervision and documentation.
