How does DDA determine your ADL support needs score if you are age sixteen or older?
(1) If you are age sixteen or older, your ADL support needs score is the total adjusted "Type of support" scores from the following SIS questions:
ADL questions from the SIS assessment in WAC 388-828-4200 and 388-828-4280 | |
Question # | Text of ADL questions: |
A2 | Bathing and taking care of personal hygiene and grooming needs |
A3 | Using the toilet |
A4 | Dressing |
A6 | Eating food |
E1 | Taking medications |
E2 | Ambulating and moving about |
(2) If your "Frequency of support" score for a SIS ADL question is zero or one, adjust your "Type of support" score for that question to zero.
(3) If your "Frequency of support" score for a SIS ADL support question is two, three, or four, no adjustment is needed to your "Type of support" score.
