| It is not the question if a patient is not allowed to perform an activity, or if there are no facilities for the patient to be independent. If patient would be able to do the activity, they should be scored as "unassisted".

| |
| | |
| == Discussion ==
| |
| * we want to get back to the way it was done before the confusion of instructions.
| |
| Current
| |
| * Grace: gets what they can off ER sheet, then use ward records
| |
| * Vic: go through ER, then as close as possible on Ward, OT/PT does good job usually within 24hr (MOST patients are assessed). Lots of nursing home placements are why this is done
| |
| * StB: ER assessment for falls assessment / risk sheet / prevention program; sometimes filled by ward nurses, then you have physio and OT and home care, latter usually for elderly patients only.
| |
| | |
| | |
| * what values are used
| |
| ** Worst in some locations
| |
| ** most likely accurate in other location
| |
| ** some use pre-admission ADL, some use ony after WARD admission
| |
| ** "how they are normally"
| |
| ** some changed from "usual" pre-2007 to "worst" after
| |
| ** sedated patient is coded as if they were unassisted
| |
| | |
| Dr. Roberts says:
| |
| We want the permanent or chronic ADL, not the transient one. We want the prolonged future state prediction that takes into account the historical ADL with a projection how their current state will impact the future ADL.
| |
| | |
| Example: changes via a stroke.
