Abstract

Date Presented 3/31/2017

Self-management and coordination of care by persons with disability are essential but often overlooked instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs). Our data clarify the disability- and health-related activities involved and show that these IADLs are measureable. Occupational therapy techniques should be applied to improve these skills.
