As Counselors in Make Progress continue to meet with clients on their caseloads, we need to regularly perform the DLA to measure a client's mental health and disability impact on daily activities over time. The DLA score also impacts a client's ability to move on to the @Work program.
This article describes how to record a DLA.
Begin from the client's Contact Page.
1. Click Assessments.
2. Scroll down and click New Assessment.

Depending on your internet connection, it may take a few moments for the assessment you selected to load. During this time you will see dots on the screen. Keep waiting and it will load.
