A variety of rehabilitation goals were identified, and the focus shifted over time. These data highlight the importance of changing the focus of rehabilitation as patients' priorities vary over time.

In the long-term, greater input from services to address health, nutrition, leisure, and fitness goals may be more beneficial.
