Résumé :	Introduction This short report describes the use of the Australian Therapy Outcome Measures for Occupational Therapy (AusTOMs-OT) in an early supported discharge programme for stroke patients in Singapore. Method The Australian Therapy Outcome Measures for Occupational Therapy was assessed at the start and end of the early supported discharge programme and differences were statistically analysed. Findings All Australian Therapy Outcome Measures for Occupational Therapy scales demonstrated statistically significant change over time. The most commonly used scales were ‘Upper limb use’, ‘Functional walking and mobility’ and ‘Community life, recreation, leisure and play’, reflecting the pertinent types of occupational therapy intervention used in stroke rehabilitation in the home setting. Conclusion This study shows that the Australian Therapy Outcome Measures for Occupational Therapy is a useful outcome measure that can be used to articulate the administered occupational therapy interventions to members of the multi-disciplinary team and support the effectiveness of occupational therapy in stroke rehabilitation.
