(Auto-generated)

to restore someone (or more rarely, something) to a state of good condition -- such as recovery from addiction, illness, prison, or poor reputation

Rehab is sometimes used as an abbreviation for rehabilitation or a rehabilitation facility such as might be used to help someone recover from a drug addiction.

Although rehabilitate can be used generally, it is typically replaced with refurbish when talking about buildings or machines, and with recuperate when talking about recovery from an illness.
