Rehabilitation services vary considerably in their position on whether documentation of torture is a component of rehabilitation services or whether care-providers can be, or should be, engaged in the documentation of torture. The availability of qualified health professionals competent in the documentation of torture may also dictate whether documentation is offered as a component of rehabilitation services. The unique context of each service often dictates whether documentation is offered as a service.
