"This is a great example of a cutting edge public/private initiative. It
is clear that the technology offered by
Mindshare is enhancing the services to
our children," said Jeff Rainey, chief
executive officer of Hillsborough Kids,
Inc. "When our staff has the tools they
need to do their job effectively, we see better outcomes for
children and families."
At the touch of a button, HKI caseworkers
have dramatically improved their ability to:
- Respond quickly and reliably
- Access information and notes during visits
and interviews in real-time
- Track critical dates for follow-ups
and referrals
- Receive alerts about upcoming needs
or gaps in services
- Prioritize care based upon severity
of need
Caseworkers are empowered with the ability
to customize notifications to the specific needs of particular children
and families. Visibility Grid:
- Notifies senior level management and
administrators as needed
- Analyzes and predicts behavioral trends
- Maximizes accountability throughout the
organization
Visibility Grid also provides geo-profiling
by plotting the patterns of unseen, missing and runaway children on
a geographical map. HKI is hopeful this will allow caseworkers and
supervisors to review patterns visually as well as report on and locate
runaway children more quickly.
"This is important work we are doing here,"
said Mindshare President & CEO,
Greg Povolny. "I look forward to the day we are at 0 % late and 100%
safe."
