31 Administrators Administrators HCC administrators have access to manage various elements of the HCC platform, depending on the administrator role. Below are key points related to administrator management: Several default administrator roles are available within the HCC. Each role has a pre-defined set of features access. Administrators can be given access to the entire institution, or to specified departments or subsidiary affiliations. Employees who have both employee/student and adminstrator access will have a single login. Once logged in, the Select Affiliation page is presented, allowing the user to choose the employee/student or administrator login. Administrators can be designated to have more than one administrator role. Multiple roles can be combined into a single administrator role accessed from one login, as long as all administrator roles have the same affiliation access. A complete description of each default administrator role is available by running the Roles Features report. Note: When determining who should administer the HCC, consider the level of access to sensitive student data each administrator role allows. IMPORTANT: HCC and HLC administrator roles will combine into a single role for administrators using both programs. It is important to consider the affiliation access for each type of role to ensure that limited access to student records is preserved as desired. Adding an Administrator There are two ways to add an administrator to the HLC: Promote an employee/student, or add an outside administrator. If the person you wish to add as an administrator is already a employee/student in the system, then you can promote the individual to an administrator. Promoting an employee/student copies information from the employee/student record, and ensures that a single login can be used to access the HCC.

107 Assessment Templates Creating an Enterprise Level Dynamic Assessment By utilizing a combination of sharing/override settings and the dynamic statement section feature, it is possible to create a single assessment template that is protected at the enterprise level, but allows for customization at the facility and unit levels. To do so, create an assessment template at the enterprise level of the hierarchy, and utilize the following guidelines: 1. Set the assessment template sharing option to Allow subsidiaries to use and override (based on permissions). This enabled overrides on only the individual sections indicated for overrides. 2. Add sections for enterprise-only control, as needed. Do not enable the Allow Subsidiaries to override Section Properties check boxes for these sections; this ensures that subsidiaries cannot edit these sections. 3. Add as many sections as needed for facility-level control. Enable the Allow Subsidiaries to override Section Properties checkboxes for these sections; this allows administrators within the subsidiaries to edit the sections as needed. 4. Add dynamic statement sections for unit-level control. These sections will be used by managers, alternate raters, employees, and peers to add statements to the assessment template. Enable your desired settings for the dynamic statement sections. Do not enable the Allow Subsidiaries to override Section Properties check boxes for these sections; this ensures that subsidiaries cannot edit the dynamic statement section settings you elect.

117 Goals Goals Goals are created to monitor employees progress toward high-level objectives. Goals are added to goal sections in assessment templates by managers, alternate raters, and employees at the time of assessment. As an administrator, you can also assign group goals to any group of users. There are four types of goals: Personal, Strategic, Departmental, and Developmental. When creating group goals, observe the following rules: Goals show only the department or departments to which administrator is affiliated. When a goal is assigned to multiple departments and one student belongs to all more than one of those departments, the goal appears only once on that student s goal listing. When a new student enters a student group he or she receives all goals that were assigned to that group, except for goals for which the due date has passed or is empty. When a student leaves a student group, his or her goals are not deleted. The student can still manually set any goal s progress to Not Applicable if the goal is no longer applicable to him or her. Updates or edits that you make to goals will not affect goals that are associated with closed assessments. A goal does not have to be associated with an assessment; its progress can be tracked using goal management. A goal does not have to be completed to be rated on an assessment; it may be rated in any state. A goal section must be created on the assessment template for the goal to be applied as part of an assessment. Updated: November

Click the assignment name link under the assessment name that you wish to delete to access the Edit Assignment page. Changing the Due Date for an Individual Assignment You may find that you need to change the due date for an assessment assignment after an individual assignment has been made. If this situation arises, follow the best practices below to ensure that your students see the appropriate dates in the HCC. 1. Copy the individual assignment. See Copying an Individual Assignment in this document for more information. In the copied assignment, edit the due date as needed. 2. Delete the original individual assignment. See Deleting an Individual Assignment in this document for more information. After the assignment is deleted, the due date for the student will appear as Assignment Deleted on the My Assessments page. Note: The new due date may not appear to the student immediately, as the HCC must process the request first. Note: If a student has multiple assignments for the same assessment and those other assignments are NOT exempted, the student will see the earliest due date among these assignments listed as the due date for that assessment on the My Assessments page. Note: The assignment with the due date of Assignment Deleted will always appear in the administrator view of the My Assessments page. The HCC was designed to track each instance of the assignment in this view. Updated: November

156 Completing Approvals Completing Approvals When an assessment is completed and signed off on, it needs to be approved by the approval hierarchy created in the assessment template. This hierarchy includes at least one manager, but may also include up to two more managers, one education approver, and one human resources approver. HCC Education Approver The HCC Education Approver will receive all assessments that were designed to require education approval for specific ratings. This requirement is designated within the assessment template. HCC Education Approvers may be affiliated with the entire institution or specific departments. To view assessments awaiting approval, the HCC Education Approver must: 1. Log in as an administrator. 2. Click the Competency tab. 3. Click the Approvals link. 4. Click the name link of the assessment awaiting approval. 5. Review the assessment. 6. Click Approve to move the assessment forward in the routing process, or click Reject to return the assessment to the rater s My Assessment page in the Evaluate state. Note: Multiple users may serve as an HCC Education Approver for a single department. Each will receive a copy of the assessment, but only one approval is required. HCC Human Resources Approver The HCC Human Resources Approver will receive all assessments that were designed to require HR approval for specific ratings. This requirement is designated within the assessment template. HCC Human Resources Approvers may be affiliated with the entire institution or specific departments. To view assessments awaiting approval, the HCC Human Resources Approver must: 1. Log in as an administrator. 2. Click the Competency tab. 3. Click the Approvals link. 4. Click the name link of the assessment awaiting approval. 5. Review the assessment. 6. Click Approve to move the assessment forward in the routing process, or click Reject to return the assessment to the rater s My Assessment page in the Evaluate state. Note: Multiple users may serve as an HCC Human Resources Approver for a single department. Each will receive a copy of the assessment, but only one approval is required. Updated: November

157 Reverting a Rated Assessment to the Evaluate State Reverting a Rated Assessment to the Evaluate State Once an assessment is rated and submitted by the manager or designated alternate rater, it is moved to the Review state. At this point all users participating in the assessment are prevented from making further changes to the assessment or assessment ratings. However, the assessment can be reverted back to the Review state if edits to the assessment are necessary, or if the assessment was moved to Review prior to the submission of all ratings. The assessment s manager, alternate rater (if applicable), or an administrator can revert an assessment from Review to Evaluate. The Revert to Evaluate feature is only available if the feature is enabled for your role. Some organizations may choose to turn off this feature. If you have questions about the availability of this feature in your organization, contact your primary HCC administrator. When an assessment is reverted to Evaluate: All assessments ratings remain saved and unchanged. Any submissions also remain. Employees and/or peers are prohibited from making changes unless they never submitted their assessment ratings, or unless the assessment is changed by the rater in the Evaluate state. Any Reflective Plans created based upon this assessment will be deleted. The Reflective Plan configuration settings will remain unchanged within the assessment. These settings can be adjusted as needed by the rater, and a new Reflective Plan is created when the assessment is submitted to Review again. Any Approvals and comments related to the Approval process will be deleted, if applicable. The Approval process must be completed again in full. Any Review sign-offs and sign-off comments will be deleted. Sign-off must be completed again. If, after the assessment is reverted to the Evaluate state, changes are made to the assessment that will impact the assessment score (for example, adding or removing statements or goals), any rating submissions are removed. At this time, the employee and/or peers must make changes to their ratings and re-submit the assessment. To revert an assessment to the Evaluate state: 1. On the People tab, click Manage Students and search for the employee who owns the assessment you with to revert. 2. On the Manage a Student page, click My Assessments in the navigation tree. The My Assessments page appears and lists all assessments assigned to this employee. 3. In the Type filter, select All. 4. In the State filter, select Review from the drop-down menu to view only assessments in the Review state. The arrow icon appears in line with any assessment in the Review state. 5. Click the arrow icon associated with the assessment you wish to revert. A confirmation message appears. 6. Read the confirmation message and assure your agreement with the impact of reverting the assessment. Click OK. The assessment moves from the Review state to the Evaluate state. Updated: November

158 HCC Reports HCC Reports The HealthStream Competency Center (HCC) provides three report types under two headings: HCC Library Reports and Other Reports. HCC Library Reports: Assessment Printing Reports: Printable PDF reports, managed via the Custom Reports link on the Reports tab. State and Rating Reports: Reports designed to report on assessment state and rating, managed via the Custom Reports link on the Reports tab. Other Reports: Assignment-related Reports: Reports used to track the assignment of competency assessments, accessible on the Reports tab under the People Reports and Education Reports headers on the Reports tab. The HCC library reports are initially created by HealthStream and then made available at your organization during implementation in accordance with your contract. Your HCC implementation specialist will assist you in enabling reports at the appropriate levels of your organization. When you create custom reports, you elect the sharing settings to control which levels of your hierarchy can view, edit, or copy reports. You can also control the sharing of the reports made available to you by HealthStream. All HCC users (that is, non-administrators) can access assessment printing reports depending on which of these reports are enabled when an assessment template is created. HCC Administrator Roles All three report types require an administrator role to access. Note: Reporters must have the HCC administrator role with designated affiliations to access HCC reports. Having a reporter role alone will not allow access to reports. There are two roles associated with the basic library reports: HCC Reporter Ad Hoc Viewer: This role allows administrators access to view, export, and print enabled library reports. HCC Reporter Ad Hoc Editor: This role allows administrators to modify library reports using available filters, add new reporting fields, and view and print reports. There is one role that allows you to view assignment-related reports: HCC Reporter Process: This role allows HCC administrators access to run the assignment-related reports, found under the People Reports and Education Reports headers on the Reports tab. Updated: November

159 HCC Reports State and Rating Reports The State and Rating report library includes data related to assessment states and ratings. Report data can be exported and (when available) filtered by administrators with the Ad Hoc Viewer role. Additional fields can be added to the report by administrators with the Ad Hoc Editor role. The following table lists the reports that are available in the HCC report library. Report Name State By Assessment State By Assessor State By Department State By Supervisor Ratings Assessment By Assessment Ratings Assessment By Assessor Ratings Assessment By Department Ratings Assessment By Supervisor Ratings Statement By Assessment Ratings Statement By Assessor Ratings Statement By Department Ratings Statement By Supervisor Description State of Assessments grouped by Assessment then State.
