Pilot survey of nursing home patients, using index of personal care activities of daily living.

A R Crowe.   

Abstract

The author describes a simple eight-item personal care index of activities of daily living (ADL) to aid in assessing the needs of patients requiring placement in a long-term care institution. Using the index, an analysis of patients in a nursing home was undertaken, comparing regular care patients with patients designated as heavy care. The results of the survey, including the ADL index and demographic and diagnostic data, are described.
