Abstract
- The Residential Environment Impact Survey (REIS) and the REIS-Short Form (REIS-SF), based on the Model of Human Occupation, are non-standardized, semi-structured assessments aimed at evaluating how a home influences the quality of life of the resident(s). Occupational therapy practitioners have used these instruments as consulting tools to formulate and implement recommendations to improve residents' occupational functioning. Using a faculty-practitioner collaboration framework, international REIS and REIS-SF users were surveyed to elicit feedback regarding how these tools are being used, and how they can be improved. Survey results were analyzed and will be used to further develop these instruments to better meet the needs of practitioners. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
