The term "rehabilitation" is a working definition of the psychosomatic concept. In order to carry out this Gestalt type of thinking, the emphasis of therapy must be changed from aggregation to integration of diagnostic, planning, and treatment services, The Fort Thomas staff is coordinating and integrating its functions as quickly and efficiently as possible to effect this change. Its interpretation of the psychosomatic concept in working clothes is presented in this paper through its three-step process: 1. The integrated diagnostic study; 2. Controlled planning; 3. Therapy and follow-through.
