京都府における理学療法および訪問リハビリテーションの現状

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to outline the physical therapy services and its service delivery. In Kyoto prefecture, 66 hospitals provided physical therapy services (30.3% of 2l8 hospitals). There were 39 hospitals in Kyoto city (59.1%) and 3 hospitals were registered as "Sogo-Rehabilitation-Shisetsu", the highest class of physical therapy. A questionnaire survey revealed that 7 hospitals provided the service delivery of physical therapy to the patient's residence. These results indicate that physical therapy services have well developed into the medical services at hospitals and that, especially in urban area, the services has progressed. On the other hand, however, the service delivery of physical therapy is rather poorly developed.
