MossRehab is one of the premier rehabilitation centers in the country and the largest in the region. There are various training fellowships, and medical students rotate in the institution. PM&R residents share their knowledge of rehabilitation medicine with other learners and benefit from the unique experiences. Entrustable Professional Activities are used as part of the educational process. All the services have gait rounds in the therapy gym for patient care purposes that helps to educate residents about the nuances of gait problems, deviations along with associated treatments.
The physicians who have been identified as core faculty currently educate PM&R residents from the Temple, University of Pennsylvania, Jefferson and JFK residency programs on prosthetics, orthotics, gait, traumatic brain injury, spasticity, electrodiagnostic, pain and MSK rehabilitation and interventional procedures. Our staff is known nationally and internationally for their contributions to the literature, educational offerings and research as well as being highly regarded clinicians.
