Details and patient eligibility

About

The aim was to conduct a Turkish validity and reliability study of the Johns Hopkins In-Room Independence Scale. We believe this scale will address the lack of information regarding fall risk and dependency, particularly for patients scheduled for discharge and their caregivers.

Full description

Independence and fall risk are critical for many illnesses and age groups. Patients receiving inpatient physical therapy in a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation clinic often worry about returning home and performing daily activities after discharge. Therefore, this scale assessing in-room independence will allow us to better warn and guide patients about potential risks.
