WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT Our rehabilitation mission is to drive goals and outcomes. We believe that setting clear goals and measuring outcomes are essential components of rehabilitation. This ensures the best possible care for our patients. Our rehabilitation programmes use the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) framework, Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS), and the Modified Barthel Index (MBI) to measure the outcomes of each patient.
The ICF Framework: The framework was developed by the World Health Organisation and is a comprehensive model that helps us understand the impact of health conditions on an individual’s functioning and disability.
It encompasses three main components:
01
Body Functions and Structures:
02
Activities and Participation:
We assess the physical and mental aspects of our patients’ health.
We evaluate how these health conditions affect an individual’s daily life and participation in society.
03 Environmental Factors:
We consider the influence of the physical, social, and attitudinal environment on an individual’s functioning.
Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS): Goal Attainment Scaling is a method used to set personalised rehabilitation goals with patients. Instead of relying on generic goals, GAS allows us to work with patients to define specific, achievable objectives that are meaningful to them. Each goal is assigned a numerical score, and we continually monitor progress. This approach ensures that our rehabilitation plans are patient-centred and outcome-driven.

Modified Barthel Index (MBI): MBI is a widely recognised tool for measuring an individual’s level of functional independence in performing activities of daily living, such as bathing, dressing, and mobility. This index assists in assessing and tracking patients’ progress. Additionally, it can be used to quantify changes in a patient’s functional abilities over time.
While at Tokai Rehabilitation each patient; • Is assessed by a Registered Nurse • Has a rehabilitation plan and goals developed by our multidisciplinary team • Has a discharge date and post discharge follow-up clinic date set
