Implementation considerations

Leading Entity

Support the local aspiration of a data driven organisation by improving the local data and analytics capability including people, processes and tools. Data should be used to constantly improve everything we do so we can optimise practice in a continuous way e.g.: identifying deterioration of patients, improve patient flow, improve clinical quality and safety, support situational quality research, and provide personalised care. Examples of activities include:

Upskilled staff with the capability to turn data into insights and with the knowledge to find the right report at the right time Timely access to meaningful data in the context of an end to end process Trialling advanced analytics methods and learning from the trials

The workforce education, performance unit, specialised clinical teams and ICT teams should collaborate to review workforce data literacy gaps and put in place a program to improve this As analytics require a mixture of skillsets, continue to enhance the partnership between clinicians, the clinical informatics team and the performance unit to deliver analytics that support clinical decision making Consider the need of an easy to navigate and search repository of analytical and data assets to help users discover useful reports Align with investments and decisions from initiative ‘3.2 Leverage the statewide Data Lake initiative’ Continue to align to future statewide data and analytics positions.
