Surely staff will disagree so often that it will all depend on who does the rating rather than the service-users real level of problems?
HoNOS was designed to maximise inter-rater reliability and there are published data about this. However, like all such ratings, HoNOS ratings are subjective and prone to some disagreement. Like the validation quality checks mentioned above, services using the HoNOS system can arrange to check this by, for example, getting all staff to rate the same video of a service user.
