Staying HIMS Compliant Today and Into Tomorrow
For more than 60 years, the Community Council of St. Charles County has focused on improving human services in the tri-county region of St. Charles, Lincoln and Warren, Missouri. This unique partnership brings together organizations from all sectors – nonprofits, government, education, healthcare – to address homelessness, hunger, and affordable housing in the community.
Over time the organization’s existing database was unable to keep up with HMIS compliance or to coordinate intake and assessment processes between the different agencies.
How CaseWorthy Helped
Accurate Data
Better access to accurate data made it easier for the Council to produce data quality and program performance reports, and put the organization squarely back on track with compliance reporting. Now managers can also filter the exact information they need to create custom reports. Data can be exported, or users can create a number of charts and graphs to prove outcomes. Most reports – APRs, ESG, CAPER – are available at the touch of a button. And reports are configurable by role, meaning that individuals can only see data relevant to their roles within the organization displayed on the dashboard.
Customizable Worklows
The CaseWorthy application gave the Council the flexibility to customize not only dashboard screens, but also workflows. “This ability to simplify [workflow] processes for our smaller agencies will go a long way in ensuring they use the application,” stated Mary Hutchison, Executive Director of the Community Council.
Coordinated Intake
Shared intake and assessment tools via a central web portal empowers service providers across the community with 24/7 access to the information and resources they need anytime. All the data is all securely stored in a single database, making it easier for everyone to work together to meet common goals.
