A PREDICTION SCORE FOR GERIATRIC REHABILITATION PROSPECTS

C. P. U. STEWART*

Department of Geriatric Medicine, Ashludie Hospital Monifieth, Angus DD5 4HQ, Scotland

An Activities of Daily Living score was calculated for 61 patients admitted to a geriatric rehabilitation unit. The score provided good correlation with subsequent placement of these patients.

Improvement within one month of admission was a good indication of probable discharge to a Residential Home for the Elderly or discharge to own home.

*Present address: Dundee Limb Fitting Centre, 133 Queen Street, Broughty Ferry, Dundee DD5 1AG.
