OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
The administration of psychometric rating scales for initial assessment and outcome tracking, and the use of the resulting data for clinical decision-making can improve clinical outcomes. Data collected through measurement-based (MBC) care can also serve to compare the effectiveness of mental health services and systems. But lack of guidance on what outcomes to measure and how has contributed to slow uptake of MBC, and to a lack of data comparability.
