disability assessment tools

Disability assessment tools are structured methods used by healthcare professionals to evaluate how a health condition or impairment affects a person’s ability to perform daily activities and work. These tools consider physical, psychological, and social factors to provide an objective measure of disability severity. They help determine eligibility for support, treatment needs, and benefits, ensuring that assessments are consistent and fair. Essentially, they provide a systematic way to understand how a condition impacts an individual's functioning and independence.
