    Investigating Whether Discharge Destination from a Long Term Care Hospital Can be Predicted Using Admission FIM Scores for Patients Post CVA

    Admission FIM score was found to be a strong factor on discharge destination. These results support the few earlier findings that demonstrate individuals with a higher admission FIM score are more likely to be discharged to the community.   As is evidenced by the numbers there was wide variability in admission FIM scores, which were taken into account in this study therefore the generalizability, is great for individuals who have suffered a CVA.
