Electronic Health Needs Assessments – The Catalyst to Improve Your Delivery of Child Health Interventions?
Electronic health needs assessments are crucial to meeting key commissioning aims. These aims were set out in the revised 2021 Healthy Child programme & 2020 No Child Left Behind guidance.
Not only do electronic health needs surveys allow a service to demonstrate it’s aligning with goals such as service modernisation and leaner working, they do so at an extremely cost-effective rate. And, with the end of the financial year approaching, it’s time to look at spending any surplus – before it’s too late! Low-cost, high-return, service digitisation solutions are an ideal candidate.
Release more time to care with Electronic Health Needs Surveys
Electronic health needs questionnaires, specifically, are instrumental in discovering the issues facing a particular locality. Questionnaires allow nursing teams to identify issues, from high-level (assessing trends across an entire area), down to an individual child.
With electronic solutions – such as SchoolScreener® Health Needs – now available, this can be done with minimal setup or administrative burden. So, you can still receive the vital information that allows you to target appropriate interventions. Without being buried under mountains of paperwork!
SchoolScreener® Health Needs has a whole range of engaging & responsive content. These electronic health needs surveys have been developed from our work with providers across the country. So, you can access a reliable library of material, proven to tick commissioner’s boxes. And the best part – all the whilst, it is releasing more time to care, by automating the tedious parts.
Meaning you can save time & money in distribution, collection, and collating of your questionnaires.
