Respiratory Physiotherapy


Respiratory physiotherapy is not yet defined or structured as a sub-specialty across many European countries. Therefore this project aims to develop a post-graduate respiratory physiotherapy programme with a specific training period defined by task force members. The project will closely follow the development strategy for educational standards defined through HERMES.


This project is aimed at those who have completed postgraduate training in respiratory physiotherapy as well as allied health professionals working in this field. As the specialty is in the process of consolidation and is not recognised in many countries, those who are advocating for the recognition of the specialty will have specific use of the recommendations given in this project.
