The FIM assesses six areas of function (Self-care, Sphincter control, Transfers, Locomotion, Communication and Social cognition), which fall under two Domains (Motor and Cognitive).

The FIMSM contains 13 items that assess motor functioning (eating, grooming, bathing, dressing, toileting, bowel and bladder control, transfers, and locomotion) and 5 items that measure cognitive functioning (communication and social cognition). Each item is rated on an ordinal scale ranging from 1 (Total Assistance) to 7 (Complete Independence).
