Preliminary Study of the Utility of the Menu Task in an Acute Care Setting
The mean duration of the MT assessment suggests that routine administration by occupational therapists in an acute care setting is feasible and can add information distinct from the basic mobility and self-care data provided by the AM-PAC measures. This study provides preliminary evidence that the MT is sensitive to functional cognitive deficits in an acutely hospitalized population; however, further research is needed to establish the relationship between the MT and postdischarge independent living skills.
