Rehabilitation kathschach

Rehabilitation includes a comprehensive range of inpatient and outpatient services and complex continuing care for adults who experience debilitating illness or injury. CIHI facilitates the collection of standardized information on inpatient clients, mainly through the National Rehabilitation Reporting System (NRS). 

CIHI’s reports and indicators provide stakeholders with information to assess client outcomes, examine access to inpatient rehabilitation, and evaluate programs and services.

Rehabilitation: Data holdings

Rehabilitation: Data holdings kathschach

The National Rehabilitation Reporting System (NRS) contains client data collected from participating adult inpatient rehabilitation facilities and programs across Canada. These include specialized facilities as well as hospital rehabilitation units, programs and designated rehabilitation beds. The minimum data set contains clinical data on functional status based on the 18-item FIM® instrument and additional cognitive elements. Private online e-reports are updated on a quarterly basis for participating facilities and other authorized users.

Facilities collect client data on admission and discharge from the inpatient rehabilitation program. They send the data directly to CIHI on an ongoing basis for inclusion in comparative reports. There is an option to collect additional information in a follow-up assessment conducted 80 to 180 days after a client completes their rehabilitation stay. Collecting this information provides an opportunity to assess the sustainability of functional outcomes gained during rehabilitation.
