You may already use outcome measures as part of your work and are looking for further information on how to interpret the responses and adjust your practice accordingly. Alternatively, you may be just beginning your outcome measurement journey and be looking for basic information on what they are, why to use them, which ones to use for what and how to introduce them into therapy.
