Introduction: Since 2010 the Ministry of Health is accrediting multi-professional teaching units (UDMs) for training of graduate physicians, nurses and psychologists in field-related specialties (Family and Community Care, Geriatrics, Pediatrics, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Occupational Health and Mental Health) in Spain. Aim: To describe the experience and results of multi-professional teaching units accreditation in the Community of Madrid, between 2010 and 2013. Materials and methods: A transversal descriptive study has been made with field-related UDMs as the target population. Results: 38 multi-professional teaching units and 516 residency places has been accredited for training of graduate physicians, nurses and psychologists unevenly distributed among the five field-related specialties. Conclusions: The process of accreditation of UDMs has rendered positive results but it seems necessary to clarify the training purposes of UDMs among involved professionals and to assess the impact of UDMs in specialists training.
