Clinical Outcomes in Routine Evaluation — Outcome Measure
Thirty-four items across wellbeing, problems, functioning and risk; the standard outcome measure in UK psychological services.
Psychometrics
Designed explicitly for routine service use rather than for trials, with a risk subscale built in and well-established clinical cut-offs and reliable change indices.
Cautions and misuse
The risk items are a screen embedded in an outcome measure, not a risk assessment. Endorsement requires direct follow-up.
