How we measure & monitor our work
Self-report instruments are introduced to provide a benchmark by which we measure the changes on a session by session basis, and to inform an end of therapy result.
The data are entered into an independant, national database, from which we can determine the success of our interventions. The results also provide a unique opportunity for us to subsantiate the efficacy of our service.

Practice based evidence is central to the hgp approach.
Internationally recognised psychometric tests are introduced at assessment and at each domiciliary therapy session. These reveal the patient's psychological problems at the outset, provide session by session progress and illustrate an end of therapy result.
The results indicate that a clinically reliable change is effected in the majority of patients who access our service.
"The hgp model promotes a climate of positive change, enabling people to return to normal, day to day living, in the shortest possible time.
Our evidence-based treatment is delivered within a framework of sound knowledge, experience and accountability to the patients and referrers."
