Twenty-five rheumatoid arthritic patients were studied to determine the extent of independence and functional requirements necessary to use public bus transportation in Philadelphia. To measure the extent of independence, a functional assessment scale was developed that evaluates 19 bus activities, each according to a four-point scale. Of the 11 subjects who stated that they used the public bus prior to admission, only 4 were found to be able to use the public bus independently at the time of evaluation. Ascending, descending and motion activities provided considerable difficulty for the sample population. Functional requirements of boarding and disembarking the bus are described in detail.
