Where it comes from

From Middle French réhabilitation, from Medieval Latin rehabilitatio.

noun rehabilitations

  1. countable, uncountable The process of rehabilitating somebody or something. The working life span of a passenger carriage, on average, is between 30 and 35 years, so a steady replacement takes place quite naturally. The life span of a station, however, cannot be so easily reckoned, for it depends largely on the rehabilitation and upkeep of the existing structures.
