AFLS Basic Living Skills Assessment Protocol

FLS, 2012. Softcover. New. The Assessment of Functional Living Skills (AFLS) has the ease, look, and familiarity of the ABLLS-R extended to necessary skills of independence in Home, School, and Community Settings. The AFLS consists of: ¥ The AFLS GuideÑA teaching companion that contains task analyses, teaching suggestions, and prompting strategies, and ¥ Six individually available assessment protocols including Basic Living Skills, Home Skills and Community Participation Skills, School Skills, Independent Living Skills and Vocational Skills. The AFLS comprises the Guide and protocols that assess functional, practical, and essential skills of everyday life. Each assessment protocol can be used as a standalone assessment, but the protocols are conceptualized as distinct parts of an extended assessment spanning a continuum throughout a learnerÕs life in home, school, and community settings. Each module is distinct, but is connected by unifying themes and overarching goals for maximizing a learnerÕs freedom, independence, and opportunities. Bundle multiple modules and customize the perfect assessment for your setting and situation. The Original AFLS Bundle Set includes Basic Living Skills, Home Skills and Community Participation Skills. The School Skills, Independent Living Skills and Vocational Skills Protocols are sold separately. Other economical bundles are available. This is the Basic Skills Module. Basic self-help, self-care, self-management, hygiene, routines, and core communication skills are assessed in this protocol. The skills assessed in The Basic Living Skills Assessment Protocol should be thought of as a prerequisite for any functional skills program for any learner regardless of age, setting, or disability. These essential skills, if not mastered, will have a profound impact on a learnerÕs ability to live independently, to be successful in school, and to take advantage of various social and recreational activities throughout the learnerÕs life. The Basic Living Skills Protocol includes: ¥ Self Management ¥ Basic Communication ¥ Dressing ¥ Toileting ¥ Grooming ¥ Bathing ¥ Health, Safety and First Aid ¥ Nighttime Routines
