Early discharge planning is important for safe, cost-effective, and timely hospital discharges. Patients with deconditioning are at risk for prolonged lengths of stay related to discharge needs. Functional mobility outcome measures are associated with discharge disposition. The purpose of this study is to examine the clinical usefulness of risk categories based on the Activity Measure for Post-Acute Care (AM-PAC) "6-clicks" Basic Mobility (6cBM) scores on predicting discharge destination.
