Outcome Measurement of Rehabilitation Services
Training Seminar, 23-24 June, Brussels
The purposes of measuring outcomes are numerous and include evaluating the overall impact of an intervention with a client, the specific impact of an intervention or approach in response to a client's needs, relative outcomes in similar clients in order to identify the extent of benefit achieved from the services provided (i.e., those who benefit most and least), intervention outcomes, in conjunction with resources used, in order to determine the effectiveness and efficiency of the services provided or the achievement of service delivery goals and system goals as a component of planning for rehabilitation or health and social care services. The key is to determine the level of the individual’s increased independence and improvement through collaborative rehabilitation approaches.
The seminar has been facilitated by Fong Chan, Professor in Rehabilitation Psychology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Director of Clinical Training (doctoral program) and Fred R. McFarlane, Professor in Rehabilitation, Chair of the Department of Administration, Rehabilitation and Post-secondary Education and Co-Director of the Interwork Institute at San Diego State University.
The trainers explored the theoretical and practical aspects of this broad topic while providing the participants with a range of tools and indicators to measure the outcomes in various rehabilitation fields. They have discussed together on how to integrate the theory of outcome measurement into multi-disciplinary practice which will ultimately have positive impact with the client.
Fourteen participants were around the table to learn about new tools and approaches for measuring the impact of their programmes.
