What is health related quality of life? It is a term used to describe well being. A state of well being in which the social, psychological and physical aspects of self…of your life… are integrated.

If you are injured, ill or depressed, you are in a state of what we call Health -.

When you are in optimum physical health. challenging your mind, and spending loving time with family and friends, you are in Health +.

The World Health Organizations research demonstrates that with injury and illness, a focus on the medical condition (symptoms) does not predict the amount of services you need, length of hospitalization, level of care needed, or functional outcomes. With a focus on function, on the tasks and activities you need, and a focus on participation in the work and leisure activities you desire…then we see movement toward a better quality of life…toward Health Plus.
