===Appendix A Care Requirements Summary===
In 2009 BC Care Providers Association developed a summary classification of residents for their organization. This table is a modified version of that classification, with more focus on the “typical “ residents. Most residents in care facilities fall into Groups 1, 2 and 3. A small minority may come within Groups 4 or 5, some of whom may be living in specialized units.
==== Prospective complex care residents may be categorized into five groups====
;GROUP 1:
Physically dependent and cognitively intact with medical needs requiring professional nursing for monitoring or medical intervention. Requires a planned care program. Unable to use wheelchair independently. Requires paraprofessional interventions.
;GROUP 2:
Clinically complex requiring professional nursing, monitoring and skilled intervention. May be re-ambulation, hospice/ palliative, medical sub acute (high needs).
;GROUP 3:
Cognitively impaired, socially appropriate. Unable to communicate needs, requires directional assistance and/ or requires total care with ADLs. Requires a secure environment for safety. May or may not be independently mobile.
;GROUP 4:
Cognitive impaired, socially inappropriate, anti-social behaviours. Unable to communicate needs, requires total care with ADLs. Requires a secure environment for self protection.
;GROUP 5:
Residents with severe behavioural problems, destructive, aggressive, violent. May or may not be independently mobile.
