FOR PATIENT AT RISK OF FALLS

FOR KNEES ONLY.

For your convenience we have provided to you the forms and the paperwork that may be required for your initial evaluation. 

Apart from the patient intake forms that are separated out with location we have also provided a link for you to print out your customized self reported functional outcome measurement scales.

These scales are required by Medicare and most of the other insurance companies. For example the Pain and disability index is your report on how pain is affecting your function in daily life.  We suggest that you fill out at least 2 functional outcome measurement scales.

Suggested scales according to the effected joint.  Please click on the link/buttons of the corresponding tests to review/print.

1. For ALL patients with pain (except shoulder pain): Pain and Disability Index.

2. For Shoulder/Elbow/Hand: Croft Disability Questionnaire, DASH/Quick Dash, PENN Shoulder Disability Index, and Pain and Disability Index

3. For Neck/Back pain: Spine and Neck Disability Index, Oswestry Scale, Quebec, and Pain and Disability Index.

4. For Hip/Knee/Ankle/Foot Pain: Lower Extremity Functional Scale and Pain and Disability Index.

At the time of the initial phone call the front office desk should have instructed you on the required functional outcome measurement scales that may be applicable to your condition. Please read the tests and measures and answer all questions to the best of your ability. If you have any questions then the therapist can help you answers the questions at the time of the initial evaluation.
