Efforts to assess and improve the quality of mental health services are often hampered by a lack of information on patient outcomes. Most mental health services in England have been routinely collecting Health of the Nation Outcome Scales (HoNOS) data for some time. In this article we illustrate how clinical teams have used HoNOS data to identify areas where performance could be improved. HoNOS data have the potential to give clinical teams the information they need to assess the quality of care they deliver, as well as develop and test initiatives aimed at improving the services they provide.
评估和改善心理健康服务质量的努力常常因缺乏患者治疗结果的信息而受阻。一段时间以来，英格兰的大多数心理健康服务机构都在定期收集《国家健康结果量表》（HoNOS）的数据。在本文中，我们将说明临床团队如何利用HoNOS数据来确定可以改进绩效的领域。HoNOS数据有可能为临床团队提供他们所需的信息，以便评估他们所提供护理的质量，以及制定和测试旨在改善他们所提供服务的举措。
