• Key Concepts: 
  ADL score stands for Activities of Daily Living score. It is a numerical score used to measure the level of independence of a patient in performing activities of daily living. It is used in the IS-H SAP for Healthcare component to assess the patient's ability to perform basic activities such as bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The ADL score is calculated by assigning a numerical value to each activity of daily living. The higher the score, the more independent the patient is in performing these activities. The ADL score can be used to assess the patient's progress over time and to determine if additional care or support is needed. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to remember that the ADL score is only one measure of a patient's level of independence. Other factors such as cognitive ability, physical strength, and emotional well-being should also be taken into consideration when assessing a patient's overall health and wellbeing.
