Turkish Validity and Reliability of the Expanded Rehabilitation Complexity Scale

The RCS is a tool that can assess the need for complex rehabilitation and objectively indicate that a patient may have difficulty functioning well at home or in the community if their medical needs are still high. Among rehabilitation patients, there are still patients with complex needs, even though they have maximized rehabilitation potential. Moreover, RCS can also be useful in highlighting cases of patients becoming seriously ill during the rehabilitation process due to an acute illness such as sepsis, which significantly limits treatment time. This information can be emphasized using RCS data when requesting extended or increased rehabilitation support.
