Annual PT Examinations - Data Collection Instrument - Baseline

[Guest guest]

PTManagers et al:

Has anyone had experience performing an annual PT Exam for a large group of

Geriatrics?

I am working on a project that will collect baseline and ongoing yearly

follow up data for about 800 individuals - average age about 80 years.

I would like to avoid re-creating the wheel, if possible. Need to identify

key functional areas to collect data and any tools already available.

Any direction or input will be much appreciated.

Thanks

normative data for the geriatric population. There is an extensive How to

Manual with CD to record and compare data based on age and sex matched

normals.
