Training Resources

AMHOCN Training and Service Development has developed Basic training resources, Rater and Clinical Utility training resources, Team Review training resources and, in collaboration with Barwon Health, the Whose Outcome Is It Anyway? DVD and associated information resources.

Basic Measures Training

AMHOCN’s Basic Training has been developed to provide a basic introduction to:

the background and rationale for the introduction of the National Outcomes and Casemix Collection (NOCC);
the agreed national data collection protocol and the local adaptations to this protocol; and
the skills required for completion of the measures.

Manuals and accompanying powerpoint slides have been developed for each mental health program stream (Child and Adolescent, Adult, Older Persons) and for the service settings within those streams (with the exception of Child and Adolescent). Separate manuals have also been developed for the clinician rated measures and for the consumer rated measures.

All the resources are available below for downloading.

Rater and Clinical Utility Training

Using the NOCC in Team Reviews and Case Presentation

AMHOCN have developed a training resource to provode clinicians with information that will assist them in using the National Outcomes and Casemix Collection measures in team reviews and in case presentations. Manuals have been developed for Child and Adolescent, Adult and Older Persons mental health services. You can download the manual and Powerpoint slides that highlight how these measures are being used to improve coordinated clinical care for consumers of mental health services.
