ICF
The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) is a framework developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) to describe and measure health and disability. It provides a standardized way to assess how health conditions affect an individual's daily life and functioning, emphasizing the interaction between health and various environmental and personal factors.
The ICF is used by healthcare professionals, researchers, and policymakers to improve health services and support for individuals with disabilities. It helps in understanding the full impact of health conditions, guiding interventions, and promoting a more inclusive society by recognizing the diverse experiences of individuals.
