Data System


CQL CELEBRATES 1-YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF REDESIGNED PORTAL DATA SYSTEM

CQL launched an extensive upgrade of the PORTAL Data System one year ago on
October 5th, 2020.

 * 
 * 

Posted on October 5, 2021

The redesigned platform for the PORTAL Data System was launched by CQL | The
Council on Quality and Leadership last year on October 5th, 2020. In
collaboration with the platform developer and one of CQL’s technology partners,
MediSked, the new PORTAL provides users with an intuitive structure, simplified
navigation, and improved features. CQL and MediSked are celebrating this
milestone by sharing some of the highlights of the system and the benefits for
its users.

“Collecting and analyzing data is absolutely essential in our field. Human
service organizations need to be able to assess the impact that their supports
and other initiatives have on the lives of people with disabilities,” says Mary
Kay Rizzolo, president and chief executive officer of CQL | The Council on
Quality and Leadership. “We’re so proud to offer this tool to our partners so
they can evaluate data to identify areas of success and address opportunities
for improvement.”


THE IMPACT OF PORTAL

PORTAL has more than 3,500 individual user accounts, pulling in data from 900
provider organizations spanning dozens of states in the United States, along
with agencies in Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, and Australia. It incorporates
data from more than 900 Basic Assurances® surveys and 19,000 Personal Outcome
Measures® interviews, which is continuously expanding as more data is entered
into the system.

“We are honored and privileged to support CQL and its data set that is used to
help improve outcomes for people and their circles of support,” shares Doug
Golub, president and co-founder of MediSked. “Our mission is to improve lives,
drive efficiencies, and generate innovations for health and human service
organizations that support our community and our partnership with CQL has only
helped us continue to build on that.”

PORTAL is used to gather and evaluate data about personal outcomes and agency
supports at the individual, organizational, and national level across hundreds
of different data elements. From individual person-centered plans to agency
strategic plans, PORTAL assists organizations in making sound decisions to
improve the quality of supports and quality of people’s lives.

This data also helps inform CQL’s numerous research articles about a wide range
of topics including DSP workforce issues, social determinants of health,
community integration, abuse and neglect, and more.


NEW PORTAL FEATURES

The improvements made to the platform were directly based on feedback received
from customers of the previous PORTAL Data System. In developing the updated
PORTAL, a focus was placed on the user experience through a clean menu, sharp
design, and brand new capabilities:

 * Simplified menu options
 * Streamlined navigation
 * Numerous access levels and user roles
 * Search, sort, and filter functionality

 * Templated and customized reporting
 * Interactive data dashboards
 * ‘Save & Continue’ and auto-saved surveys
 * Improved loading speeds


NEW PORTAL DATA SYSTEM TUTORIAL


UTILIZING THE PORTAL DATA SYSTEM

Organizations that have achieved CQL Accreditation receive complimentary access
to the PORTAL Data System for the duration of their accreditation term. Those
who have achieved CQL Certification or participated in a Personal Outcome
Measures® Workshop can purchase an annual subscription to PORTAL for $1,250.

As we highlight this anniversary of PORTAL, CQL and MediSked are excited by the
positive effect that the platform can have on human service providers. “Our
agency will be implementing the features of PORTAL to measure the impact of our
strategies and ensure we are tracking the effectiveness of policies and
procedures,” says Leslie Long, Chief Executive Officer, The Arc of Cape May
County.
