French term or phrase: MPR
Context:
Il revient ensuite dans l’hôpital initial avec le pronostic annoncé de « probable » dépendance ultérieure à une ventilation par respirateur.
Pendant les 8 mois d’hospitalisation en réanimation, il présente des complications respiratoires et urinaires itératives, il perd 25 kg.
Mr D. est ensuite hospitalisé dans une unité pour blessés médullaires à 500 km de son domicile du fait de l’absence de structure MPR plus proche pouvant accueillir un patient ventilé 24h/24 par une machine.

Once again stumped by abbreviations.
Your help much appreciated.
TIA Chris.

In English the abbreviation is PRM or PMR, and many well-known hospitals have departments dedicated to this branch
