  • Provide feedback to clinical staff based on data analysis to help refine patient care strategies.
  • Collaborate with clinical and educational leaders to ensure that training programs are aligned with current data findings on disease management, medication adherence, and patient care practices.
  • Suggest improvements to training and education materials based on observed trends and gaps in care protocols.
  • Continuously monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of readmission prevention initiatives, identifying areas where care improvements can be made.
  • Use data visualization tools such as Pareto charts to clearly communicate common causes of readmissions and suggest targeted interventions.
  • Assist in developing new protocols or refining existing ones based on data analysis, focusing on addressing common causes of readmission.
  • Ensure that protocol changes are well-documented and communicated to the relevant teams to enhance care outcomes.
  • Ensure that all actions and data collection processes comply with federal, state, and local regulations regarding home healthcare and patient privacy.
  • Prepare and submit detailed reports on readmission rates, preventive measures, and care improvements to senior management and external partners, such as Kaiser, within 24 hours of discharge when required.
