About the Personal Outcomes Measures®


Organizations often find themselves “stuck” in a compliance mode of thinking. Without a doubt, safety, health and general practice procedures are essential, and you’ve met those requirements. Now it’s time to go beyond the basics to the real quality of life issues and develop a culture of person-centeredness. CQL’s Personal Outcome Measures® form the foundation for organizational quality enhancement. The Personal Outcome Measures® are short, clear and written in plain English. They are easy to explain to families, friends, elected officials, and government representatives. And they apply to everyone – not just people with disabilities. Personal outcomes are important because they put listening to and learning from the person at the center of organizational life.
CQL is committed to helping your organization’s leadership, management and staff use person-directed principles and proven strategies in all aspects of your service delivery.
After looking at CQL's Personal Outcome Measures®, a family member remarked, "These are all so simple and basic. This is what we all want in our lives.”
