[Method] Hospital overview, composition of the PT department, manual for corresponding with condition changes, equipment condition of RM apparatus, written request for PT, reports, approval of hospital function evaluation, and the presence of nurses in the PT department were investigated by mail and classified using cluster analysis. [Results] Valid responses were obtained from 148 institutes, which were broadly divided into 7 clusters. In the policy of each department, a significant difference was observed in the mean value of bed numbers along with the degree of policies. Regarding the equipping of RM apparatus, a significant difference was observed in the number of workers depending on the type of apparatus available.
