Abstract
ABSTRACT
Postgraduate medical burn rehabilitation training has been limited, with very few academic physiatrists specializing in burn rehabilitation. As a result, there are no existing models for postgraduate burn rehabilitation education. A 12-mo comprehensive clinical fellowship in burn rehabilitation was offered through a tertiary burn center with formal university accreditation. In this article, the clinical, educational, and skill-based goals developed and implemented for this novel fellowship was outlined to serve as a blueprint for future fellowships in burn rehabilitation, as well as reflections on the experience.
