Sending & Viewing Assessments (PROMs)
Assessments, also referred to as PROMs (Patient-Reported Outcome Measures), are structured questionnaires that track a patient’s mental health, wellbeing, or functional progress over time. They generate numerical scores, support clinical insight, and can be charted longitudinally.
🧠 What Do Assessments Include?
PROMs may include:
-
✅ Total scores
-
📊 Subscales (e.g., Depression, Anxiety, Stress in DASS-21)
-
🏷️ Range labels (e.g., Mild, Moderate, Severe)
-
✨ AI-generated summaries
-
📈 Trend graphs over time
-
📄 Downloadable reports (PDF format)
✉️ Ways to Send Assessments
You can send assessments to patients using several flexible pathways:
1. 🖐️ Manual Request
Send an assessment directly from a patient’s Assessments tab:
-
Click ➕ Request Assessment
-
Select one or more assessments
-
(Optional) Add a message
-
Click Save to send
🔔 The patient is notified to complete it via the app or web portal.
2. 🕑 Scheduled Assessments
Set up recurring assessments to send automatically:
-
Click ➕ Schedule
-
Choose frequency (e.g., every 2 weeks)
-
Set start date, time, and number of repeats
3. 👥 Group Program Triggers
Assessments can be automatically triggered when a patient is enrolled in a Group Program:
-
Start of Program (e.g., baseline measure)
-
End of Program (e.g., outcome measure)
✅ This happens without manual intervention and ensures consistent measurement across group cohorts.
4. 🗓️ Linked to Appointments
Assessments can be automatically trigger based on appointment activity:
-
Trigger when a booking is made for a specific service
-
Trigger when the appointment is marked as Attended
🔧 This will be configurable in the Bookable Services setup, allowing pre- or post-session assessments to be seamlessly integrated into care workflows.
