			<h3>Description</h3>

			<p>TFLS provides an ecologically valid, performance-based screening tool to help identify the level of care an individual requires. Brief and easy to use, the TFLS is especially well-suited for use in assisted living and nursing home settings.</p>

			<h3>Users &amp; Applications</h3>

			<p>TFLS can help support diagnostic work-ups, placement decisions, treatment planning, evaluation of treatment outcomes, and monitoring of disease progression. The instrument is used by a range of professionals, including by neuropsychologists, occupational therapists and clinical psychologists to:<br />
			&bull; determine appropriate level of care required upon discharge from hospital<br />
			&bull; evaluate changes in level of care for individuals</p>

			<h3>Content</h3>

			<p>TFLS helps measure an individual&rsquo;s ability in four functional domains:<br />
			&bull; <strong>Time</strong> &mdash; Ability to use clocks and calendars<br />
			&bull; <strong>Money and Calculation</strong> &mdash; Ability to count money and write cheques<br />
			&bull; <strong>Communication</strong> &mdash; Ability to make a snack and use phones and phone books<br />
			&bull; <strong>Memory</strong> &mdash; Ability to remember simple information and to take medications</p>

			<h3>Features and Benefits</h3>

			<p>The instrument is linked with the WAIS&reg;-IV and the WMS&reg;-IV. TFLS is particularly useful with individuals suffering from dementia because it focuses primarily on skills likely to be affected by cognitive decline.</p>

			<h3>Psychometric Information</h3>

			<p>TFLS has been standardised with the WAIS-IV and WMS-IV.</p>
