Learn About the My Clients Page

Whenever a User selects a Client for Assessment, the Client will be added to the User's own My Clients list. A User can also search for a Client in the system and, upon finding him or her in the search results, select "Add to My Clients" to add the Client to the list.

The My Clients section helps Users access Clients easily, so they don't have to search for them over and over again.

Note for Supervisors: You cannot get a listing of all the Clients for an entire given staff's My Clients list. You can use the Supervisor Dashboard to see the list of upcoming assessments by staff, overdue assessments by staff, etc., however you cannot get a complete list of the whole staff's My Clients list.


Use the My Clients Page to Manage Case Loads

While FAS Outcomes does not allow supervisors to manage their staff's case loads, the My Clients page can be used by staff to manage your real-world case load. Just search for the Clients that are part of your case load, and add them to your My Clients page.

Note for Supervisors: There is no way to administer a staff's My Clients list. They can be viewed, however, by going to the Supervisor dashboard, drilling down on total assessments, and sorting by Assessor to get an idea of who is doing what cases. Use the Activity Report to see upcoming and overdue cases--which also specifies who the last Assessor to work with the case was.

Search for a Client

There are two ways to search for a Client's record: approximately and exactly. Exact search is used in the interest of privacy when the Client is present, and can be accomplished on the Exact Client Search page.

To access this page, expand the Clients tab in the Left Navigation Bar and click on Exact Clients Search.  (See below.)

At times when the privacy of Clients is not at risk, an approximate search of Clients may be accomplished on the Client Search or Client Search by Caregiver pages, as found in the Left Navigation Bar under the Clients tab.  (See below.)

   

An even more robust approximate search is available to Administrators only on the Admin Client Search page:
