Application of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health in Assessment of Integrated Rehabilitation of Disabled People

The article presents the possibility of applying the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) in assessing the rehabilitation process in the conditions of the regional center for the social rehabilitation of disabled people and disabled children. Step-by-step algorithm for evaluating the process of integrated rehabilitation is shown on the example of a single case of a disabled working age with consequences of acute cerebral circulation disorder: 1) assessment of the needs and problems of the client; 2) planning of rehabilitation interventions; 3) implementation of rehabilitation measures; and 4) evaluation of the effectiveness of rehabilitation measures. To assess the functioning of the client, standardized methods and scales were used with subsequent translation of the results into the ICF category. On the basis of quantitative data, the functional profile of the client was displayed, which showed the degree of impairment of the body's functions, activity limitations and the possibility of the client's participation in a certain time period. The functional profile was used as a basis for planning and conducting rehabilitation activities. The final evaluation of the effectiveness of rehabilitation was given on the basis of a comparison of the results achieved in the implementation of rehabilitation goals with the initial parameters according to the main categories of restrictions on the activity and participation of the client.
