    Functional Assessment Tools

    Hi All,

    I'm trying to get my hands on:

    The Modified Elderly Mobility Scale (MEMS) - I'd settle for the Elderly Mobility Scale (EMS)

    and

    The Timed up and Go (TUG) Test

    I'm specifically after the tests themselves and any background info on their validity. I've done some searches and pulled together bits and pieces but nothing that gives me a complete tool to use.

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks & regards,
    Ray

    Hi,
    at the risk of sounding a bit sarcastic: why don't you Google it?
    The first hit gets you onto the CSP website with a full description, evidence base, literature references and the actual scale/ form.
    It's a PDF document.

    Cheers,
    Andrea

    Thanks Andrea

    I have googled and binged and you will see that that scale on CSP is for the Elderly Mobility Scale. I am looking for the Modified Elderly Mobility Scale.
