For eating, valid values are: 1 - Independent or supervision only 2 - Limited assistance 3 - Extensive assistance/total dependence/tube fed Note: a score of 4 or 5 is not valid. Scores are summed for the four ADL variables (i.e. bed mobility, toileting, transfers and eating) to reach a total RUG-ADL score.

The total RUG-ADL score differs from the individual RUG-ADL score as it is the total of all the individual RUG-ADL item scores added together. |
