PATHWAYS COMPASS Videos

Perhaps you've read about PATHWAYS COMPASS, or you've attended a user class... but you still need to know more about how the system works. Pathways has introduced a new series of online videos that walk you through the PATHWAYS COMPASS system's basic functions. The topics of the first three videos are:
  • Client Search - a demonstration of how to use the PATHWAYS COMPASS system to search for people who have received services in your community
  • Program Enrollment - learn how to enroll a client in a program and record a service for that client in one transaction
  • Program Discharge - a demonstration of how to discharge a client from one or more programs.
Click here to view the videos. If you are a system user and you would like more information after viewing the videos, call our support team at 866-818-1032 x308. If you aren't a system user, Tommy Phillips will be glad to answer your questions. He can be reached at 866-818-1032 x305 or at tommy.phillips at pcni.org.

New Systems Uptime Reporting

Our information systems and support teams are always working to make sure that the information systems we develop and operate are as dependable as possible. Now we're adding a new resource to support these efforts and keep you updated on the status of our systems.

Here's how the new monitoring service works: Data centers in Seattle, WA and Washington, DC check PATHWAYS COMPASS and Oracle BI Discoverer every few minutes, 24 hours a day. We are notified immediately if one of our systems is very slow, or if a server is down, so we can address any problems right away, often before any users are affected. You can see an up-to-the-minute report on this continuous system testing at any time by clicking on this link or visiting our Service Level Policy page, which describes our systems uptime commitment to you.

As always, you may contact our support team (support@pcni.org or 866-818-1032 x308) to report any problems with our systems, or to ask questions about our new monitoring service. We look forward to hearing from you.
