Learning Outcomes
• Understand the importance of clinical measuresbeyond routine clinical measurement
• Supplementing routine clinical measures withidentified problem area measures
• Using Excel to simply map change over time fortargeted consumers
• Understanding the importance of norms, cut-offscores and specialised groups
• Importance of privacy issues in using measures

Focus on the context• Private / Not for Profit / Primary Health Care
• Homeless people
• Substance dependent people
• Mentally disordered people
• General population
• What are the challenges in private practice andprimary health care?
• Cost to the consumer / state
• Poor engagement / intoxication
• Time limited intervention / treatment
• Multiplicity of problem areas that interact

Focus on solutions• Supplementing routine clinical measures withproblem specific measures can help
• Most therapeutic approaches (MI, DBT, ACT etc.)focus on working with the issue / problem theconsumer wants addressed
• Clinical practice directs an assessment (includingrisk issues) is made, a diagnosis formulated andtreatment implemented
• Rapid Assessment Inventories assist the clinician inexploring with the consumer the issues the personbrings, their severity of impact on functioning, andagreed treatment goals

What scales / measures are about• Assessing validity, reliability, factor analysis todetermine clusters of items forming a subscale
• Understanding the usefulness of a scale relies onyour scoring and understanding norms or cut-offpoints
• These translate in understanding with the personthe severity of the problem in comparison with otherpopulations e.g. US college students, women inrefuges, adult male prisoners etc
• In combination with routine outcome measuresthese can help reach agreement with the personabout the direction, goals and expected outcomes ofcare and treatment

Excel and Subscales
• Commonly loaded software program onorganisational computers
• The task is to semi-automate the summary of OMand other routinely used scale items into subscales
• As illustrated above these summaries can be used,classically, with outcome measures to highlightassessment and intervention strategies incollaboration with the consumer
• Requires multiple entry of the OM data but providesgreater flexibility in how data are presented indiscussion

Automate the calculation of Subscales
2014
o Here the actual score is represented (calculated) as a percentageof the total score
o Because the BASIS-32 shows higher scores when the item isworse for the person it can be called a problem scale (Compare toAPQ6)
o The percentage of problem for the person is consistent with higherscore, so higher percentages represent the intensity of problemover all the items in that subscale - this is much easier tounderstand than item scores

Copy the Subscales to a Summary
• Here a comparison over time iseasier to make and discusswith the consumer
• Changes to the subscalesindicate greater improvementin progress in some areascompared to others
• A direct comparison betweenHoNOS scores and BASIS-32scores is possible to discusswith the consumer
• The measures provide bothconsumer and clinician theopportunity to discuss context

The importance of consent
• Clarity about why information is collected
• Purpose in requesting scale to be completed
• Feedback from results being shared
• Discussing the psychosocial context for change
• Medication and self-medication effects onfunctioning
• Keeping data safely for periods of time
• Using de-identified data to understand the outcomesof program provision – how do we know theprogram had an effect compared to simple activitydata
