Headspace Data Export

This program creates the seven data export files required for Headspace reporting. It must be used only in conjunction with the Headspace dataset.

Requirements

  • The Headspace dataset must be imported into the Communicare database.
  • The Headspace clinical items must be enabled (currently 'Headspace;Assessment', 'Headspace;Closure', 'Headspace;Duration of Care', 'Headspace;Enrolment' and 'Headspace;Initial Contact').
  • The automated recall 'Outcome of Headspace assessment - On Qualifier - Headspace;Enrolment' must be enabled.
  • The Headspace letter templates must be enabled (currently 'Headspace Instrument - K-10', 'Headspace Instrument - SOFAS' and 'Headspace Instrument - WHO Assist Q1&2 Scale').

Data collection

For each client full biographics must be recorded in patient details. This must include language, language spoken at home, country of birth and marital status as well as the client's name, sex, date of birth and address. Note that if the sex is neither Male nor Female, or the marital status is 'Married (registered or de facto)', the Headspace;Initial Contact' item is used to specify further detail.

All initial contacts must be recorded on the 'Headspace;Initial Contact' item (selected from the Headspace clinical item button in the clinical record).

An assessment that accepts a client for treatment must be accompanied by a 'Headspace;Enrolment' item.

Subsequent services must always include a 'Headspace;Duration of Care' item on which to record complexity, location and nature.

Duration of services is recorded automatically by Communicare by timing how long the clinical record is open. For a service that last longer (or shorter) than the time the clinical record is open can be recorded using the service details (accessed from the yellow triangle button at the bottom of the clinical record or from the service recording window.

When a period of care is complete a 'Headspace;Closure' should be completed.

Data rules

A duration of service item cannot be added unless there is an enrolment prior to the duration of service and no closure after the duration of service, A client can be re-enrolled by adding an enrolment after a closure.
