“Basic ADLs consist of self-care tasks that include:[9]

Bathing and showering

Personal hygiene and grooming (including brushing/combing/styling hair)

Dressing

Toilet hygiene (getting to the toilet, cleaning oneself, and getting back up)

Functional mobility, often referred to as "transferring", as measured by the ability to walk, get in and out of bed, and get into and out of a chair; the broader definition (moving from one place to another while performing activities) is useful for people with different physical abilities who are still able to get around independently

Self-feeding (not including cooking or chewing and swallowing), as opposed to assisted feeding.”
