Summary/Abstract: A number of changes caused by paradigmatic changes as well as additionally disturbed by COVID-19 have led to the emergence of solutions slightly different from the conventional ones in theory, methodology and practice of rehabilitation. The primary ecological states for the issues under consideration in which organisms may be found are those of population surplus and population shortage. The first of these states became the basis for the development of the evolution theory, while the second one served as an impulse to consider a number of phenomena in the convention of self-organizing systems, which undoubtedly influenced the formation of certain paradigms in the field of rehabilitation. Currently, the dominant humanistic paradigm with its detailed forms constitutes the basis for the development of research and experience related to the broadly understood issue of disability. With new ideas being constantly generated, the one which has been discussed in the article is the paradigm of the quality of life support for people with disabilities.
