The aim of the present study is to assess the professional skills of the Medical Rehabilitation and Occupational Therapy students at the Practical skills training care facilities of the Faculty of Medicine, Trakia University. The study involved 10 mentors and 53 medical specialists from the Practical skills training care facilities for the period 2017-2018. The majority of mentors and specialists included in the study assigned a very good (30%) and good (52.3%) grade of the trainees as regards the mastery of kinesiotherapy forms and methods and their application when treating real patients. Over 80% of the students were found to have a good command of specialized kinesiotherapy techniques and methods and of natural and preformed physical factors and were observed to actively participate in the training of patients in ADLs (Activities of day living).

Specialist trainees in Acute Medicine have expressed concerns over skills training in the curriculum, compared with skills training in practice. Thus, an online survey was conducted in 2009 to investigate these comments in detail. The responses from 132 trainees were analysed. The results show that the majority of practical skills are being performed by trainees who feel that they have reached a level of competence sufficient to enable them to teach the skill to others. The major causes for concern were highlighted as temporary cardiac pacing, endotracheal intubation and Sengstaken Blakemore tubes. We recommend that these skills should be taught via simulation where not available in practice, but true competence cannot be expected for the majority.
