Assisted Living communities understand the importance of telling their story.  But have you stopped to consider how your narrative might improve using data storytelling?  Data to support the quality of care and services provided is becoming increasingly important.  This training will review what data storytelling is, how to incorporate data storytelling into your narrative about your organization, and the importance of data tracking, trending, and utilization for continuous improvement opportunities. LTC Trend Tracker is the platform to help you accomplish data storytelling and quality improvement efforts. This training will review how to upload data, run reports, and download charts and graphs to use in your data storytelling. 

Objectives:  After watching this training, participants will be able to:

  • Explain why data tracking and trending is critical to assisted living.
  • Identify how LTC Trend Tracker can be a one-stop shop for collecting, tracking, and trending data important to assisted living.
  • Discuss methods to upload data and run reports in LTC Trend Tracker.
