In many cases disease registries, risk factor survey instruments and surveillance systems are lacking or not fit for purpose, with only limited disaggregation of data by sex, age or social strata. This presents problems for comparative analysis and benchmarking between and within countries, and means that monitoring of trends and the impacts of interventions is limited.

1. Content of training and learning outcome

…the trainee should become familiar with the theoretical knowledge about the full spectrum of Body a. Theoretical knowledge structure/Body function impairments, the mechanisms of tissue damage and repair, the principles of motor learning, the epidemiology and natural history of diseases, the tools for clinical, functional and instrumental diagnosis, the effects of pharmacological, surgical and complementary treatments, as well as of specific rehabilitation interventions. b. Practical and clinical skills • clinical and instrumental assessment to determine the pathophysiology mechanisms and the underlying diagnosis of the patient’s condition. • functional assessment in the frame of ICF, including assessment of body function/structure impairment, assessment of activity limitation and participation restriction and discrimination between capacity and performance, based on the detection of contextual (personal characteristics) and environmental barriers/facilitators • implementation of clinical and instrumental assessment tools to explore motor, cognitive, behavioural and autonomic functions. • prognosis of disease/disability course, detection of adverse/favourable factors of functional recovery and definition of the means (ways) of recovery, compensation and adaptation; • devising and conducting a rehabilitation plan, through a team-based approach that consists of setting achievable short, medium and long-term goals, agreed with the patient and carers, and eventually leading to patient’s reintegration in the community and improved quality of life; • prescription, as much evidence-based as possible, of medical and physical treatments (including drug treatment, physical modalities, innovative technologies, natural factors and others), as well as of technical aids (orthotics, prosthetics, wheelchairs and others), effective to achieve the goals of the rehabilitation plan; • prevention and management of complications c. Professionalism PRM practice is uniquely characterized by a team-based, patient-centred, goal-directed approach aimed to optimize patient function and quality of life, prevent complications and increase community participation. Therefore, PRM specialists are required to develop not only medical knowledge, competence in patient care and specific procedural skills, but also attitudes towards interpersonal relationship and communication, profound understanding of the main principles of medical ethics and public health, ability to apply policies of care and prevention for disabled people, capacity to master strategies for reintegration of disabled people into society, apply principles of quality assurance and promote a practice-based continuous professional development. As leaders of the multi- professional rehabilitation teams involved in the continuum of care delivery from hospital to the community, they must also exhibit managerial competences, know and apply the principles of evidence-based medicine, incorporate considerations of cost awareness and risk-benefit analysis in patient and/or population- based care as appropriate

2. Organization of training a. Schedule of training the PRM educational program in Europe is usually configured in 48-month format, rising up to 72 months in some countries, including a minimum 36 months of clinical training (of which 24 months spent in a PRM department). However, considering the tremendous increase in life expectancy all over Europe, and the consequent increase in age-related disabling illnesses with acute onset and chronic course, the frequency and complexity of comorbidities in rehabilitation wards have markedly increased. Patients are admitted to wards much earlier after the onset of acute illness or injury and the complexity of the disabilities is also rising. For this reason the UEMS PRM Section and Board requires a duration of training of 60 months including 12 months rotations in external departments (like internal medicine, neurology, intensive care and others).

A written Training Curriculum must be designed to provide a diversified and balanced quality (theoretical and practical) of b. Curriculum of training PRM education describing the contents and aims in each year of training. There should be established rotation periods covering all main areas of PRM practice. There should be a documented, continuous Education Programme which should include seminars, conferences and meetings at a regular basis (weekly, monthly, yearly).

Logbook Each trainee must keep an authorized Logbook for documentation of professional experience c. Support of trainees (not only, functional assessments, rehabilitation plans, active participation in team meetings, procedural skills; but also, multisource feedback from other members of the rehabilitation team)Patient feedback) The minimal numbers per year of each of these items should be determined nationally d. Assessment and evaluation E-Portfolio (.including an up-to-date curriculum vitae - EUROPASS style)i

Exit examination The Training Director certifies the attainment of adequate competency level for each training outcome. The final year examination must verify that the trainee has demonstrated sufficient competence to enter practice e. Governance without direct supervision and has achieved the standard level of entrustable professional activity. The minimum levels of applied clinical knowledge and applied clinical skills that a trainee must exhibit at the exit examination are reported for each single item of the whole Curriculum of Studies in PRM.

R2S2 2nd Edition – Porto Potenza Picena (MC) ITALY - May 13-18, 2019 Needs for PRM and allied health professional education at the European and National Levels Maria Gabriella Ceravolo II. TRAINING REQUIREMENTS FOR TRAINERS 1. Process for recognition as trainer To be recognized as a trainer, a physician should: a. Requested qualification and experience • Be certified as a specialist in PRM by the responsible national authority in his or her country. • Be recognized as a trainer in PRM by the responsible national authority in his or her country. • Demonstrate his or her clinical activity as being within this discipline. • Practice in the specialty for at least 80% of his or her time in an establishment recognized as a training centre by the national responsible authority over 5 years. • Practice within a defined rehabilitation team.

III. TRAINING REQUIREMENTS FOR TRAINING INSTITUTIONS 1. Process for recognition as training center a. Requirement on staff and clinical activities

To be recognized as a PRM training unit of European level, an institution/department must: • Be recognized as a training facility in PRM by the responsible national authority in its Country. • Be directed by a doctor, who is: - a specialist in PRM, recognized as a trainer by the European Board, - responsible for a team comprising: one more Board certified specialist in PRM, professionals allied to medicine, including physiotherapists and occupational therapists as well as a group of other personnel (speech therapists, psychologists, social workers). • Have all the necessary infrastructure to provide the training in PRM as defined in the curriculum (i.e. the facilities to perform diagnostic assessments, functional investigation and measurement, and treatments relevant to the discipline of PRM) • Have adequate teaching staff • Provide the trainee with space and opportunities for practical and theoretical study and access to adequate national and international professional literature • Have a structured training program, which includes theoretical teaching sessions, training duties for each trainer and adequate numbers of practical procedures per trainee • Undergo monitoring in a structured way by the national authorities including visits and appraisal of their standards as training centres on a regular basis • Have an internal system of medical audit or quality assurance including features such as reporting of accidents in accordance with a structured procedures • Maintain a network of contacts among clinical colleagues and professionals allied to medicine in hospital settings and services assisting the discharge of patients into the community. R2S2 2nd Edition – Porto Potenza Picena (MC) ITALY - May 13-18, 2019 Needs for PRM and allied health professional education at the European and National Levels Maria Gabriella Ceravolo III. TRAINING REQUIREMENTS FOR TRAINING INSTITUTIONS 2. Quality Management within Training institutions

Training centers must be recognized as a training facility in PRM by the responsible national authority. It is expected that training a. Accreditation centers undergo regular audit within their country with respect to their clinical, scientific and educational activity; therefore the audit would include data relating to the progress of trainees and their acquisition of specialist accreditation. The UEMS-PRM Board will recognize a PRM department/center as a European training center after successful completion of their procedure of a European appraisal, according to the rules published at http://www.euro-prm.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=22&Itemid=300&lang=en

Training centers should undertake internal audits of their performance as part of the requirements for continuing national accreditation. b. Clinical Governance Any national evaluation of a training center’s performance is expected to include the demonstration that it is: - providing care for patients with a wide range of disabling health conditions - providing educational and training support for trainees - part of a healthcare system that provides immediate access to relevant laboratory and other investigations as well as providing when necessary immediate access to other clinical specialties that maybe required by their patients - ensure the continuum of care Training centers should keep records of the progress of their trainees.

There are currently around 20000 PRM-specialists in Europe and 3000 PRM trainees, with a median ratio of c. Manpower planning 4 PRM physicians and 0,5 PRM trainees/100000 inhabitants, across different countries; the median number of hospital beds for intensive rehabilitation is around 100/100000 inhabitants. These figures account for a prospective increase of the total number of PRM specialists, in line with the increasing demand for rehabilitation provision and adequately staffed rehabilitation facilities
