Maturity Assessment Tools
Self-assessment tools for measuring a region's readiness for integrated care.
What is the SCIROCCO Tool?
The SCIROCCO self-assessment tool is an online self-assessment tool with an objective to assess a region's readiness for integrated care. It builds on the conceptual Maturity Model for Integrated Care developed by the B3 Action Group on Integrated Care of the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing. The Model has been further validated and tested through the EU Health funded projects SCIROCCO and SCIROCCO.
The SCIROCCO tool helps regions to:
- Understand the strengths and weaknesses of their local context for integrated care and inform national, regional and local policy-makers about potential areas of improvement;
- Facilitate multi-stakeholder dialogues on progress towards the implementation and delivery of integrated care;
- Facilitate twinning and coaching activities that help regions and organisations to better understand the local conditions that enable the successful deployment of integrated care.
How can the SCIROCCO self-assessment tool be used?
The SCIROCCO self-assessment tool consists of different elements:
An on-line maturity assessment questionnaire:
- organised along 12 domains of SCIROCCO Maturity Model for integrated care and the assessment scale
- spider diagram illustrating the assessment outcomes
- opportunity to share and compare spider diagrams of different users as a basis for consensus-building
A set of methodologies on how to use SCIROCCO tool for:
- Assessing the maturity of a health and care system towards integrated care
- Facilitating tailored knowledge transfer activities with an objective to improve capacity of health and social care authorities to adopt and scale up integrated care.
