Making Metrics Meaningful: Moving from Raw Data to Practical Process Improvement

Making Metrics Meaningful: Moving from Raw Data to Practical Process Improvement

Topic Description : Ever look at your data reports and wonder what they really mean? How do you translate the charts and graphs into real-world home infusion practice? How do you know if the targets make sense? And how can you use your metrics to motivate team-members and drive change? In this session, we will explore practical methods for moving from raw data to real-world process improvement. We will discuss how to create staff buy-in using relevant data for better patient and operational outcomes. We will share key insights for developing reporting tools that ensure data is well-defined and applicable to the practice setting. Participants will have an opportunity to brainstorm ideas and network in small groups.
