What are the main duties of a rehabilitation therapist? Main treatment direction?

Rehabilitation physiotherapists mainly reduce the physical, mental and social dysfunction of the sick and disabled through the comprehensive and coordinated application of various measures, so that the sick and disabled can return to society and improve their quality of life, including traditional rehabilitation such as Chinese medicine meridians, Chinese medicine massage, traditional fire therapy, acupuncture techniques such as scraping and cupping, and modern rehabilitation such as instrument therapy and muscle strength training.

Judging from the development trend of the future rehabilitation physiotherapy service market, the demand for rehabilitation physiotherapy will increase exponentially. With the continuous expansion of the market, professional physiotherapy talents are more needed. At present, there are less than 80,000 rehabilitation technicians in China, of which only 40,000 are engaged in TCM rehabilitation physiotherapy services, and only 7,000 rehabilitation technicians are trained nationwide every year. The overall supply and demand relationship is in short supply, and the rehabilitation physiotherapy market still needs a large number of professionals.

It is estimated that by 20 18, China will need at least 700,000 rehabilitation technicians. According to the Code of Conduct for Employees in Medical Institutions (Draft for Comment) drafted by the Ministry of Health, we will further plan medical service behavior and improve the professional quality and service level of employees in medical institutions. In order to standardize the service standards and quality of medical technicians in the rehabilitation medical industry, and fully realize the requirements of unification, specialization and standardization, the vocational training program for rehabilitation therapists is implemented by the Health and Health Vocational Skills Training Center of China Employment Training Technical Guidance Center in Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security.
