ADLs, or Activities of Daily Living, are the fundamental self-care tasks necessary for personal well-being and independent living. These essential skills include basic tasks like dressing, feeding, toileting, hygiene, and transferring (moving safely). Occupational therapists and other professionals use ADLs to measure a person’s functional independence. The guides and checklists in this section, developed by the Nexus Therapy team, provide strategies and visual supports to help individuals master these key skills, thereby increasing their confidence and autonomy.
