Abstract: Objective To explore the theory and method of performance evaluation for rehabilitation workers based on the World Health Organization Rehabilitation Competency Framework (RCF).Methods Using the theoretical framework and methods of the RCF, we analyzed rehabilitation workers' related competencies from the five dimensions, namely practice, professionalism, learning and development, management and leadership, and research, integrating core values and beliefs, competencies and behaviors, activities and tasks, and knowledge and skills, to construct a comprehensive evaluation method and pathway for rehabilitation workers' performance.Results Based on the RCF, which confirms the job competency requirements for rehabilitation workers, a multi-dimensional, multi-level and standardized performance evaluation index framework was formed. For example, performance evaluation system of physical therapists was consisted of five primary indicators and 26 secondary indicators from the combination of RCF and job standards.Conclusion The rehabilitation worker performance evaluation based on the RCF can evaluate the performance of rehabilitation workers in a scientific, standardized and comprehensive way. It analyzes the performance of rehabilitation workers in a multi-dimensional and systematic manner with the competence of rehabilitation workers as the center, and evaluates the quality and effectiveness of the performance of rehabilitation workers at different levels of proficiency, which makes the performance evaluation of rehabilitation workers more scientific and comprehensive, and enables rehabilitation workers to understand proficiency and clarify the gap, to promote rehabilitation workers to continuously improve their own level and enhance the quality of rehabilitation services.
