KINGSTON DEMENTIA RATING SCALE
The Kingston Dementia Rating Scale is a scale for use primarily with dementia patients in a long term care setting; usually with advanced dementia.  It is a 21 item scale that can be repeatedly administered by staff to establish baselines and measure change.  The scale assesses both behaviour and orientation.  It typically can be administered in 5 to 10 minutes.
