Read Me Help File – Povider Organizational Profile

There are six different files that make up The Coordinating Council of Broward (CCB) Provider Organizational Profile. They are named as follows:

1.  ProF01P1.doc Part I – Organization Identification

2.  ProF01P2.doc Part II – Service Delivery Locations

3.  ProF01P3.doc Part III – Program Information

4.  ProF01P4.doc Part IV – Program Information by Location

5.  ProF01P5.doc Part V – Community Assessment Activities

6.  ProF01In.doc Instructions and Funding Source Codes

It is recommended that each of the five profile files (Part I-V) be opened one at a time and then saved as a document template. To do this, go to FILE on the menu bar and choose SAVE AS. At the bottom of the dialog box that will appear change the Save As File Type to "Document Template". This will automatically change the file extension to “.dot” and save the file in your Template Directory. The benefit of following this procedure is that you may now go to the FILE menu, choose NEW and from the list of templates open the part of the Provider Profile you wish to complete as a brand new document, which can then be saved as a separate file without danger of overwriting the original form. This should prove particularly helpful if you have multiple programs to report and/or multiple locations for each program. Be sure to save each filled-out copy of the same form with a different name.

Each section of the Provider Profile (Parts I - V) is a Microsoft Word 97 Form. To move forward from one field to the next just use the TAB key. To move back to a previous field, use SHIFT+TAB. To skip around the fields, just click with your mouse on the field you wish to enter.

Fields underlined in RED have a help screen associated with them. Just press F1 while in the field and a dialog box will pop up with relevant help. To proceed, click on the X in the upper right corner of the dialog box. If more help is needed, you may refer to the complete and comprehensive instructions available in the ProF01In.doc file. It is recommended that you print this file out in its entirety before you begin filling in any of the different parts of the form.

If you need additional help in using these files, please feel free to call Steve Strickland at First Call For Help (954) 524-8371 x 217, Monday through Friday, 9:00 am to 4:30 pm.

When you have completed all parts of the form, please print them out and send a copy to Wil Quenga, Information Services Director, First Call For Help, 16 SE 13th Street, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33316, or fax them to his attention at (954) 524-0852. Please retain a copy for your own files.
