Objective To investigate the medical quality of rehabilitation departments in medical institutions at all levels in Shenzhen and analyze the problems, so as to promote the continuous improvement of rehabilitation care quality in this city.Methods From September to November 2019, a field investigation was carried out in 53 rehabilitation departments in Shenzhen. Five dimensions were scored by experts, including professional capacity, rules and regulations, knowledge and skills, supervision and feedback, and hospital infection control. Descriptive statistical analysis was used to characterize the data, and one-way analysis of variance was used to analyze the difference among different level hospitals.Results The average score of rehabilitation medical care quality in Shenzhen was 83.98±8.28. The average score of tertiary, secondary, and primary hospitals were 85.61±7.02, 84.54±7.83, and 77.55±10.60, respectively, and the difference among different level hospitals was statistically significant (P<0.05). According to the standard score, the highest score was in the dimension of supervision feedback (95.75±6.50), and the lowest score was in the dimension of knowledge and skills (77.27±14.64).Conclusion The overall quality of rehabilitation care in Shenzhen needs to be improved, and the management and professional training systems need to be established.
