DIP Dashboards Demonstrate good performance
Wednesday, May 28, 2008
The Drug Interventions Programme (DIP) is a key part of the Government's strategy for tackling drugs and reducing crime. The programme aims to get adult drug-misusing offenders out of crime and into treatment and other support.
DIP teams are closely monitored to ensure that they deliver good results in treating substance misusing offenders. Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are used to monitor the performance of all DIPs.
Another good month for Theseus DIPs
DIPs that are using Theseus to manage their caseload demonstrate consistently good results on their DIP Dashboards. The combination of an easy to use, easy to learn to use case management system coupled with a comprehensive reporting suite allows drug treatment teams to manage their caseload more effectively and to accurately report upon their caseload effectiveness.
Performing well, but does your DIP dashboard show that?
Theseus is a suite of easy to use Web based applications that support workers in the drug and alcohol treatment field. It has been developed with the case worker in mind. An easy to use solution that helps to lead the user through the relevant forms, featuring helpful prompts to ensure that accurate and timely information is collected. Furthermore, Theseus helps to ensure that the DAT objectives are met by highlighting any dates and obligations that would compromise achievement of increasingly demanding targets.
Using Theseus means that paperwork is practically eliminated, data entry time is kept to an absolute minimum, and that achievement of targets is maximised. Ultimately this means that the client is treated with a minimum of administration time, and good results are accurately recorded.
