Abstract:
:Of the several roads that lead to practice in the specialty of physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM&R), the most common is from a US medical school to a PM&R residency to specialty practice. To reduce the predicted shortage of PM&R physicians, more medical students must be attracted to the specialty. Past studies have failed to show success of various mechanisms, designed to expose students to the field, to attract to the residency programs. The current study was designed to further explore the medical school factors contributing to choice of the PM&R residency. The number of PM&R residents produced by each of the US medical schools was related to various characteristics of these schools: size, presence of a PM&R department, presence of a PM&R residency program. Only school size was found to explain the sizable observed variation in number of residents. Additional research incorporating quality and quantity of curricular exposure to PM&R is suggested.
