The Katz Index is a direct-observation assessment tool that measures a patient’s ability to independently perform six basic activities of daily living in the following areas: bathing, dressing, toileting, transferring, continence, and feeding.  This DVD encourages maximizing the person’s functional status, while evaluating their actual capabilities to safely perform these daily tasks.  It also identifies multiple factors that can affect older adult functioning, and discusses limitations in performing ADLs in community and institutional settings.  (Part of a 28-DVD training series.)
