Background Community-Based Rehabilitation (CBR) is reaching the rehabilitation services to the doorstep of the stakeholders. The stakeholders include the persons with disabilities, their family members or caregivers including the society where they live. 10-15% of the population in Bangladesh has disabilities and 80% of them reside in rural areas. There is no exact prediction of the necessity of community-based rehabilitation in Bangladesh. To our best knowledge, there is a scarcity of data in this field. Moreover, the study recommends the implementation of CBR in the primary healthcare services in Bangladesh and evaluates them in the country's context. Our study is expected to meet the inquiries in a small-scale population of a selected district in Bangladesh. Objectives The main objective of the study will be to evaluate the outcome of Community Based Rehabilitation (CBR) in the Jashore District in Bangladesh. The specific objectives are to screen the community dwellers for the necessity of CBR, to detect the risk of disability (induced by Low back Pain), to elicit the impact of CBR on Risk reduction and pain remission on chronic painful Musculoskeletal impairments, and to find out the effectiveness of CBR on the health matrix in chronic neurological disabilities in children and adults.
