Implementation in Data Set Specifications: | Specialist Homelessness Establishment Database - SHED Housing assistance, Recorded 14/10/2010 DSS specific information: A point of service delivery is the location at which an agency provides a service to a client. If an agency provides services to clients at more than one physical location, it has multiple service delivery points. In the SHED NMDS, this data element is used to indicate that a specialist homelessness agency is either the sole point of service delivery (i.e. it is the sole point at which specialist homelessness services are provided) or that it is one of a number of points of service delivery administered by the agency. In either case the agency is the sole point of data collection for the Specialist Homelessness Services NMDS. This data element can be used to indicate that the geographical location of specialist homelessness services delivered by the agency may or may not be limited to the location associated with the reporting agency itself; that is, other points of service delivery may occur at other unspecified locations. In the SHED NMDS, this data element is associated with the data element Service provider organisation—organisation identifier, NNNNA. This item will be collected of an agency. |
