Occupational and physical therapists in home health need a balance assessment tool that accommodates patients using assistive devices, as the standard Berg Balance Scale does not allow devices yet most homebound patients rely on them.
The Berg Balance Scale prohibits assistive devices, but home health patients almost always use them, forcing therapists to either modify the test unofficially or choose a less appropriate assessment.
