Greenspace Practical Assessment (GS-Practical)

Frequency: Twice per week

Summary

Greenspace has developed the GS-Practical Assessment, which allows therapists and patients to track key functioning and quality of life metrics. This assessment measures patient progress in the following areas: (a) Mood; (b) Physical Activity; (c) Sleep; (d) Social Interaction; and (e) Productivity. The Practical Assessment is delivered twice per week and each delivery consists of 4-5 questions. Given the frequency of this assessment (twice per week), this change in form was developed to increase adherence by patients. There are 8 different forms of assessment that are delivered.
