In Person HMIS User Meeting May 30th 2018

If you have subscribed to the HMIS Calendar on ochmis.org so that our events are visible in your Outlook or Google Calendars, you may see that the event for the May 2018 HMIS User Meeting is set on May 16th. This is incorrect and the HMIS Calendar has been updated to reflect the correct date and time for the next user meeting on May 30th, 2018, from 10AM to 11AM.

The change made in the HMIS calendar may not have been pushed out to your calendar. Next week we will send out another reminder email for the in person HMIS User Meeting on May 30th.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

Scheduled HMIS Outage 2/23 6PM – 10PM

HMIS will be unavailable on Friday, February 23rd, from 6PM to 10PM while a patch is applied to HMIS. We apologize for any inconvenience.

This patch only includes functionality changes for VASH and Street Outreach projects, respectively. Please see these Knowledge Base articles for details of the changes. VASH and Street Outreach Agency Administrators will receive an email with this same information.

HMIS Outage and New Street Outreach Data Entry Process CANCELLED

Yesterday we sent out an email letting everyone know that HMIS would be down this evening (1/25/18) and that there was going to be a new data entry process for Street Outreach projects. Both the HMIS outage and new Street Outreach process were cancelled by Adsystech yesterday evening.

The webinar on Monday, January 29th, 2018, will NOT take place. We will send another email as soon as we get more information on any possible changes to Street Outreach data entry.

HMIS Outage 1/24 and NEW Outreach Project Data Entry Process

Adsystech has informed us that HMIS will not be available tomorrow Wednesday, January 24th, 2018, from 6PM to 10PM while a new patch is applied. We apologize for the late notice we were given about this patch.

This patch will include the new data entry process for Street Outreach projects. Essentially, moving forward Street Outreach clients will have one enrollment in your project where your staff will enter their Contact dates and another enrollment once the client has been engaged. We will host a training webinar that demos the process completely on Monday, January 29th, 2018, from 3 to 3:30 PM.

Please click this link on Monday at 3PM in order to join the meeting. Click here to visit our website where you can download a calendar reminder to add to your calendar by clicking on the “Add to Calendar” dropdown.

We HIGHLY encourage all Agency Administrators from agencies that have Street Outreach teams that are currently tracking enrollments in HMIS to attend this webinar. The webinar will be recorded and posted as a Knowledge Base article on the HMIS Help Desk website immediately following the webinar.
