INDEPENDENCE OUTCOMES
We measure progress using industry-standard tools for self-care and mobility status upon admission and at discharge to determine the improvement achieved during a stay . Self-care measures , the person ’ s ability to perform activities of daily living include : eating , grooming , personal hygiene , bathing and dressing . Mobility measures are considered activities like : positioning , transferring from different surfaces , walking , building endurance and tackling community skills of different surfaces , curbs , stairs , car transfers and safe fall recovery . Higher scores at discharge show improvement and preparation to go home and return to your community .
