For the improvement of medical education in Japan a project team (Research and development project on educational programs in medicine, Chair: Tatsuo Sato) was organized in term years 1998-2000. They prepared a model core curriculum and made it open to the public in March 2001. The traditional jam-packed curriculum was compressed into about two-thirds and was completely reorganized into a totally new comprehensive design. Most medical schools have respected this model core curriculum as a guideline for the future development of their own medical curriculum. For example, regarding rehabilitation medicine the following are adopted as the fundamentals: 1) to describe the concept and indication of rehabilitation, 2) to understand the structure of the rehabilitation team and to describe the physician's role, 3) to describe the role of rehabilitation in cooperation with welfare and care, 4) to describe impairments in terms of functional impairment, performance decline and social disadvantage, 5) to evaluate the activities of daily living (ADL), 6) to describe briefly physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy, and 7) to describe briefly the major walk-supporting equipment, wheel chair, artificial limbs and apparatus.
