In the sensing activity, the person can follow a sensory cue through the tracking arc and may sit unsupported with the bed at 75 degrees for at least 30 seconds but they are unable to sit for 30 seconds with their hands in their lap.
To Verify
Most of the differences between ACL 1.4 and 1.6 can be verified by a nursing assistant who provides medical necessities. When a reliable report from a nursing assistant is unavailable, rolling and hooking an arm over the bed rail can be added to the ACLS-6.
When the verification standard cannot be met, report the mode as unverifiable. The report of an unverifiable ACL 1.6 should also include the verification standard, the cues you selected and the expressions you observed.
To Rule Out
To rule out ACL 1.8, demonstrate an active range of motion in their upper limb. If they are unable to demonstrate the ability to lift any body part against gravity you have confirmed ACL 1.6.
