AbstractWhile the benefits of routine outcome measurement have been extolled and to some degree researched, it is surprising that service user opinions on this common therapy practice have largely not been investigated. This study aimed to assess service users’ experiences of completing measures during psychological therapy, with a view to exploring how therapists can maximize how helpful measures are in therapy. Fifteen participants completed surveys about the use of measures in their current episode of care. Ten clinicians also completed a survey about their use of, and views about, measures. Results showed that despite mixed experiences in how measures were explained and used, service users showed generally favourable attitudes towards their use in therapy, with them being perceived as most helpful when well integrated into sessions by their therapists. Clinicians reported using a wide range of measures, and generally endorsed positive beliefs about measures more strongly than negative ones. Implications for clinical practice, service development, and further research are discussed.

BackgroundFollowing the development of a child and adolescent version of the Health of the Nation Outcome Scales (HoNOSCA), field trials were conducted to assess their feasibility and acceptability in routine outcome measurement.AimsTo evaluate the reliability, validity and acceptability of HoNOSCA in routine outcome measurement.MethodFollowing training, 36 field sites provided ratings on 1276 cases at one time point and outcome data on 906. Acceptability was assessed by way of written feedback and at a debriefing meeting.ResultsHoNOSCA demonstrated satisfactory reliability and validity characteristics. It was sensitive to change and its ability to measure change accorded with the clinicians' independent rating. HoNOSCA was reasonably acceptable to clinicians' from a range of disciplines and services.ConclusionsProvided that training needs can be met, HoNOSCA represents a satisfactory brief outcome measure which could be used routinely in child and adolescent mental health services.

Objective: This paper evaluates a range of properties for a clinician-based instrument designed for routine use in a child and adolescent mental health service (CAMHS). Method: The Health of the Nation Outcome Scales for Children and Adolescents (HoNOSCA) is a new outcome measure with great promise. Case vignettes were used to examine interrater reliability. HoNOSCA was implemented for routine outpatient use by multidisciplinary staff with a return rate of 84%. The 305 ratings obtained at assessment were analysed by age, gender and diagnosis. Asample of 145 paired ratings with a 3-month interval were examined for the measurement of change over time. Results: Interrater reliability of the total score indicates moderate reliability if absolute scores are used and good reliability if the total score is used for relative comparisons. Most scales have good to very good reliability. The scales discriminated between age and gender in the expected way. HoNOSCA correlated with clinicians’ views of change and was sensitive to change over a 3-month period. The total score seemed a proxy for severity. Conclusion: Routine outcome instruments must be explored in settings where they will be used and with realistic training. HoNOSCA appears to be of value in routine outcome measurement and although questions remain about reliability and validity, the results strongly support further investigation.

Mandatory Use

The mandatory use of routine outcome measurement (ROM) has been introduced into all public sector mental health services in Australia over the past 6 years. Qualitative processes were used to engage consumers and carers in suggesting how the measures can be used in clinical practice. The project involved an audit by survey, followed by a range of interactive workshops designed to elicit the views of consumers, carers and clinicians, as well as to involve all parties in dialogue about ROM. In addition, there was engagement of consumers and carers in the training of clinicians in the clinical use of ROM, and in the production of promotional materials aimed at informing consumers and carers about ROM. When consumers and carers have had an opportunity to be involved in ROM they have found it a useful experience, and those who had not been involved can see the potential. Consumers and carers indicated that they believe the greatest opportunity arising from the suite of measures is the use of the consumer self-assessment measure the Behaviour and Symptom Identification Scale (BASIS-32).

Objective: This paper describes and reflects upon the experience of a small, integrated aged care psychiatry service that has utilized the National Outcomes Casemix Collection (NOCC) routine outcome measurements within clinical practice, service management and evaluation. The goals of the NOCC initiative are reviewed in light of this experience. Conclusion: Routine outcome measurement has the potential to significantly improve aged care psychiatric service delivery. The service described has developed a model that the authors believe demonstrates the potential for routine outcome measures to improve the monitoring of patient progress, care planning, team communication, management and the understanding of service effectiveness – goals that are consistent with NOCC philosophy. However, this requires both ongoing development of infrastructure support and the willingness of clinicians to explore their utility.
