Model of joint training of specialists-members of multidisciplinary rehabilitation team on the basis of problem-oriented training within one faculty

Abstract

The rehabilitation industry of Ukraine is currently undergoing the process of reforming and developing in a new format, in accordance with international standards. The first step was due to the conclusion of the evaluation Mission of the WHO in 2015, which found the complete non-compliance of the system of rehabilitation services with the requirements of international standards and practices. Since 2017, training specialists for the rehabilitation industry of the country (doctors of physical and rehabilitation medicine, physical therapists, ergotherapists and their assistants) has started in Ukraine. Since 2019, the Ministry of Health of Ukraine has begun declaring the transition to a model of rehabilitation care by specialists in multidisciplinary teams on the basis of evidence-based rehabilitation. However, today the training of specialists-future members of multidisciplinary rehabilitation teams in universities of Ukraine is carried out uncoordinatedly without developing skills of effective cooperation and communication within the future team on a client-centered principle. We have developed and started the implementation of a new model of training specialistsfuture members of the multidisciplinary rehabilitation team in a compatible part of conditional teams with application of problem-oriented learning approaches within one faculty of Uzhhorod National University.
