Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADLs): This includes assessing the senior's ability to manage tasks like cooking, cleaning, managing finances, and using transportation.
Medical Needs: The assessment evaluates any chronic conditions, medications, and specific medical services required.
Cognitive Function: This involves assessing memory, orientation, and decision-making abilities.
Behavioral Needs: Any changes in behavior or emotional issues are evaluated.
Mobility and Fall Risk: The assessment includes steadiness, agility, and fall history tests.
