This video outlines what the Tableau for Healthcare class is all about. Please make sure to download the training QualityDataset.xlsx and Tableau For Healthcare Welcome file in the resources.
This video outlines the various ways that Tableau is being used in healthcare and opportunities for you to connect with the larger Tableau community.
This video details the importance of quality in healthcare, including what the STEEEP domains are.
This video outlines the 5W's of developing healthcare dashboards - questions and considerations that help us define scope when building dashboards for our internal customers.
This provides a brief wrap up of the background content covered in this section.
This video dives through our first use case we get to dive directly into Tableau. We'll analyze length of stay and create a dashboard to monitor performance over time.
This video dives through one of the more complicated use cases - readmissions. This is admittedly data model heavy but will highlight how we can analyze readmissions. Don't worry if this one is complicated, the rest get easier from here!
Emergency Throughput is how long patients spend in the ED, this video walks through how we can build dashboards to analyze this key metric.
Mortality is one of the most serious metrics to track within healthcare. We'll walk through the importance of having expected mortality values and build a dashboard to monitor this.
Ambulatory access is how long it takes patients to get appointments but we'll also dive into other related metrics like visit volume and no show rates.
Hypertension Management is the first real population health measure we cover and looks at how well we are controlling patient blood pressure.
This video wraps up every thing we've covered in this class. Thanks for participating!
Tableau For Healthcare is a course focused on what quality is, why we care about it in healthcare, and how we can best use Tableau to analyze it using different topics like readmissions, ED utilization, mortality, and hypertension management. Please note that while Tableau functionality will be discussed, this is not meant to be an intro to Tableau course - instead it's focused on the leveraging Tableau to analyze quality improvement within health systems and hospitals.
This course was created by me - Mark Connolly, MEng. I'm currently a Business Intelligence Lead and co-lead for the virtual Tableau Healthcare User Group. I have over 4 years of experience reporting on quality data using Tableau and over 8 years of experience in the healthcare analytics space in general. I have a Tableau Desktop Certification and recently received a Site Admin badge after completing the Tableau eLearning path.
Beyond my experience working directly with quality data and Tableau, I have also developed internal Tableau training programs and provided 100's (if not 1000's) of hours of training support to analysts both at his current organization and externally.
This course combines two of my passions - helping others with Tableau and healthcare!
