Abstract

We propose a new organizational model for rehabilitation in primary care, consisting of the creation of an interlevel clinical management unit, i.e., grouping all the material and human resources related to rehabilitation in primary and specialized care in the same area.We present the interlevel clinical management unit, which was established by the Rehabilitation Department of the Juan Ramón Jiménez Hospital in Huelva, the peripheral physical therapy areas in its catchment area, corresponding to the distinct primary care health districts in the coastal and inland regions of Huelva, and the mobile home rehabilitation team.The 1-year results on the activity, achievement of goals, and quality policy of the unit are presented.Our interlevel clinical management unit, a new organizational model that establishes a direct relationship between primary and specialized care, provides benefits in terms of continuity of care, resource optimization and improved healthcare quality.
