Abstract

Despite a growing literature emphasising its importance, Routine Outcome Measurement (ROM) in the UK remains relatively uncommon. Drawing on the example of Scottish mental health charity Penumbra, this paper provides a case study of how one service is embedding ROM in its everyday work.

Key findings:

Routine Outcome Measures (ROM) can have practical benefits for organisations, mental health workers and service users.
The individual Recovery Outcomes Counter (I.ROC) has been developed as a ROM for recovery in mental health.
Feedback from managers, staff and service users indicates that the I.ROC is user friendly and provides valuable information for these three stake-holder groups.
