Measurements

The Measurements tool in WellSky lets you track the level of vulnerability/stability for goal areas over time. The Matrix is also called a Self-Sufficiency Outcomes Matrix (SSOM). There is a standard SSOM sheet available to you. You can request access to the Measurements tab or request a customized list for your project by contacting the Help Desk.

To record the SSOM, click on the Measurements tab in ClientPoint, then click Add New Measurement to record a measurement. 

You may see other measurements have already been recorded. If this is a new series, then click on Add New Measurement. If you are adding a new data point to an existing Matrix, click on Add New Point of Measurement.

Notice that the Measurement Provider automatically defaults to your ADMIN Provider. This is okay since the Measurements tool is not connected to an Entry/Exit or Service Transaction. If this Matrix is only for a specific Provider in your Agency, make sure to change the Provider from ADMIN to the specific project.

When you create a measurement, the first measurement will automatically be marked as the initial Point of Measurement. Any measurements that occur between the initial and final measurements should be marked as interim, and any measurements that occur after the final measurement should be marked as follow up.

On the next screen, all of the questions in the measurement will be displayed. 

You only need to record rows for which you have a goal. For example, if the Client has no children, then you can skip Parenting by clicking on N/A. You can fill in the responses on this screen, or you can click the magnifying glass to see the full text of each question. If you want to fill out all the questions using the full text view, click Submit & Move to Next each time you complete a question.

For subsequent Measurements, go back to the Measurement tab in the Client record and Add a New Point of Measurement to your existing Self-Sufficiency Matrix.
