Designing Effectivness-based and Structured Rehabiliation Services (REK_253)
About Study Course
Objective
Improve knowledge and develop skills to create structured rehabilitation service delivery models that support the needs of target groups and effectively solve initially identified problems based on research results and local context analysis, as well as develop skills to plan the implementation and management of newly created or improved rehabilitation service models.
Prerequisites
Knowledge in clinical medicine and medical rehabilitation, understanding of the concept of rehabilitation and types of rehabilitation services, understanding of evidence-based practice, knowledge and understanding of current health care, including medical rehabilitation, organizations in LV, formation of service costs, knowledge of health care and social legislation regulating services, knowledge and skills about measurements in medical rehabilitation, knowledge in health care quality management and improvement.
Learning outcomes
Describes different models of health care (rehabilitation) services and the principles of their formation. Describes the concepts of integration of healthcare (rehabilitation) services. Describes and explains theoretical concepts in the context of rehabilitation service models (problem identification and analysis framework, stakeholder and needs analysis framework, patient-centered practice, principles of identifying existing evidence). Identify the principles of data collection and synthesis to support service design. Describes innovative service design concepts and principles. Describes the principle of partnership. Describes the framework, elements, activities of the service model implementation. Describes the principles of effective management of rehabilitation service models.
Identifies and analyzes problems that will be solved by an improved or new model of structured rehabilitation services.
Identifies and describes the persons/organizations involved. Obtains and maintains data on the needs of the parties involved. Obtains and collects data about the current situation/context. Synthesizes all the obtained data and uses them to formulate the purpose of the service model and understand the concept. Uses the theoretical framework (inputs/activities/outputs/impact) to model structured services. Obtains and uses feedback throughout the planning and development process. Plans and uses the partnership of the parties involved in the creation of services.
Plans effective management of the established service model. Plans the implementation activities of the created service. Plans to attract cooperation partners. An application is being prepared for the trial (piloting) of the created service model.
Plans and develops structured rehabilitation service delivery models that meet the needs of target groups and effectively address initially identified problems using scientific evidence and local context analysis. Plans the implementation and effective management of the established innovative or improved/adapted models of rehabilitation services.
