Introducing Neuro-FAST: Functional Assessment Subtests for Therapists Neuro-FAST is a time-efficient, therapist-centered tool designed to assess functional neurological abilities in acute and post-acute care settings. Each subtest is person-centered, incorporating Quality of Life (QoL) measurements, Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs), and a family-friendly, customizable one-page summary for easy communication. The subtests can be used individually or combined to create a more comprehensive assessment tailored to your clinical needs. Version 1.0 is available for initial feedback as we work toward building a full suite of tools for speech and occupational therapy. This printable eval tool is for occupational therapists working with adult patients, covering ADLs/IADLs, Bowel/Bladder, Brain Injury and Mental Health. Print Resource, US Letter, 7 pages. Members can view and print it.

Use this resource when a patient, family, or colleague asks:

  • How do I assess functional independence in ADLs during neuro rehab?
  • How do I measure patient reported confidence and quality of life in daily activities?
  • What tasks can I use to evaluate real world independence after stroke or brain injury?
