Completing an Observational
Assessment
Observational Assessments will be completed by clinical outreach professionals for individual(s) experiencing homelessness who are not able to complete a Standardized In- person Coordinated Assessment due to their mental health condition.
Identified clinical outreach professionals serving as Observational Skilled Assessors will complete this assessment on paper and only non-identifying information will be transferred to HMIS without an HMIS consent. In these cases, a Unique Identifier will be assigned by the HMIS Administrator and shared with the Observational Skilled Assessor. All information may be transferred if the person consented to share their basic information and assessment details in HMIS. Observational Skilled Assessors must transfer the information from the assessment to HMIS within one business day after completing this assessment.
