    Step 5  Care load score for domain B

         Calculate the care load score for domain B as follows:
           (a) locate the score range in column 1 of the table into which the total score for domain B fits;
           (b) the care load score is the corresponding conversion score in column 2 of the table.

Score range  Conversion score  Care load score
0 to 9       0
10 to 19     15
20 to 29     30
30 or more   85

    Step 6  Score for subdomain C (1)

        (1) Calculate a score for each question in subdomain C (1) as follows:
           (a) locate the value in column 3 of the following table that corresponds to the answer code for the question in column 2;
           (b) copy this value into column 4 of the table.

        (2) Calculate the age‑adjusted score for each question as follows:
           (a) locate the score for the appropriate age category in the age adjustment table in step 13, and copy this score into column 5 of the following table;
           (b) divide the raw score in column 4 by the score in column 5.

        (3) Calculate the total score for subdomain C (1) by adding the age‑adjusted scores in column 6.

            Note 1  The age‑adjusted score can never be less than zero.

       Note 2  The lower the age adjusted total score, the greater the disparity between the functional ability expected of a child of that age and the child's actual ability, and the higher the likelihood of care load for the carer.

    Domain C – Functional abilities – self care subdomain C (1)
