Standard Assessments in Penelope

To help ease the burden of building industry standard assessments in your client management system Athena Software offers a suite of pre-built documents and assessments with measures that focus on a variety of personal and social metrics.

For many social service organisations, building industry standard documents and assessments in their client management system can take a great deal of time, effort, and cost.

Also, depending on the flexibility of the client management system being used, complying with the structured layout and format of the documents may not always be an easy task.

Standard, pre-built assessments can eliminate these barriers and leave more time for your staff.

Each document comes with an annual administrative fee at a fraction of the cost to build each one.
