The briefest, validated, and most used measures on the planet
License PCOMS
Truly evidence-based measures to sit inside the platforms clinicians already use.
The Measures
The ORS/SRS family of measures have been clinically used and researched for nearly 30 years, including 10 randomized clinical trials – and are the most user-friendly available.
Distinguish yourself from your competitors.
Don’t just use any publicly available measure. Go beyond symptom-based measures to better represent client/patient lives, problems, and progress. Their brevity and applicability are perfect for Electronic Health Records, Telehealth platforms, and Care Networks.
The Partners for Change Outcome Management System (PCOMS)
The evidence-based use of the ORS and SRS (called PCOMS) provides a five-minute check-in that not only highlights the client’s voice, but also makes every session a course affirmation or correction rather than a guess.
Outcome Rating Scale (ORS)
Individually (Personal well-being)
Interpersonally (Family, close relationships)
Socially (Work, school, friendships)
Overall (General sense of well-being)
