Current Instruments
State Instruments
(Download the entire State Instrument)
- State Public Health System Performance Assessment
– the updated “version 2” of the NPHPSP assessment
instrument for state public health systems.
-
Respondent Information Form – a short
survey that all sites must complete to provide
basic demographic information about the jurisdiction,
state public health agency, participants in
the assessment process and other basic data.
-
Optional Priority Questionnaire – a
supplemental and optional questionnaire that
asks about the "priority" of addressing each
model standard. Those that complete these questions
get an additional component to their reports,
which rank their scores in relation to how they
have prioritized standards. This new component
is intended to strengthen and better catalyze
the performance improvement activities that
should occur as a result of the assessment process.
-
Optional Agency Contribution Questionnaire
– a supplemental and optional questionnaire
that asks about the public health agency contribution
to each model standard. Those that complete
these questions get an additional component
to their reports.

Model Standards Documents
The program has also recently produced documents including only the model standards for each of the three assessment instruments. Sites may want to consider sharing the abbreviated document rather than the full instrument with participants. It can be used as an education resource about key activities in public health practice.
