ONA Item Essential Elements For use with ADL/IADL and Medication Management Only (updated 6/29/2021) This document is intended to be used as a supplement to the ONA Manual and FAQs which can be found by clicking on the following link: ONA Assessor Resource Page Instructions: Use this document along with the Coding Decision Tree and Coding Key to accurately determine which essential elements to consider for each item when coding ADL/IADL and Medication items. If the individual needs a support person’s help at least 50% of the days the activity takes place with any or all of the steps listed in the “Setup or Clean-up” column and needs no help in the “During the Activity” column, code ‘Setup/clean-up’. If the individual needs help with any or all of the steps listed in the “During the Activity” column, identify what kind of help is needed at least 50% of the days the activity takes place. Then consider the following options for coding: If the individual needs full 100 % physical assistance for all steps in the “During the Activity” column, code ‘Dependent’ regardless if help is needed in the “Setup/clean-up” column. Or, if some help is needed at least 50% of the days the activity takes place for some or all of the steps during the activity, code the kind of help that is needed: ‘Supervision’, ‘Partial/Moderate’ or ‘Substantial/Maximal’. Please note: The list below is not exhaustive. There could be elements in a person’s life that are not listed such as using conditioner in the shower, using lotion as part of a general hygiene routine or using fabric softener while doing laundry, etc. Also, don’t include activities from the list that don’t represent the person; for example, if the person always wears slip on shoes, don’t focus on the support to tie shoes.
