Code the resident’s usual performance at the end of the stay for each activity using the 6-point scale. If an activity was not attempted
at the end of the stay, code the reason.

Coding:
Safety and Quality of Performance - If helper assistance is required because resident’s
performance is unsafe or of poor quality, score according to amount of assistance provided.
Activities may be completed with or without assistive devices.

If activity was not attempted, code reason:

•

06.

Independent - Resident completes the activity by themself with no assistance from a helper.

•

07. Resident refused

•

05.

Setup or clean-up assistance - Helper sets up or cleans up; resident completes activity.
Helper assists only prior to or following the activity.

•

•

04.

Supervision or touching assistance - Helper provides verbal cues and/or
touching/steadying and/or contact guard assistance as resident completes activity.
Assistance may be provided throughout the activity or intermittently.

09. Not applicable - Not attempted and
the resident did not perform this activity
prior to the current illness, exacerbation,
or injury

•

10. Not attempted due to environmental
limitations (e.g., lack of equipment,
weather constraints)

•

88. Not attempted due to medical condition
or safety concerns

•

03.

Partial/moderate assistance - Helper does LESS THAN HALF the effort. Helper lifts,
holds, or supports trunk or limbs, but provides less than half the effort.

•

02.

Substantial/maximal assistance - Helper does MORE THAN HALF the effort. Helper lifts
or holds trunk or limbs and provides more than half the effort.

•

01.

Dependent - Helper does ALL of the effort. Resident does none of the effort to complete the
activity. Or, the assistance of 2 or more helpers is required for the resident to complete the activity.
