HOSPITAL OPERATION AND PATIENT FLOW ANALYSIS DASHBOARD WITH DEPARTMENT WORKLOAD AND READMISSION MONITORING

Abstract

The Hospital Operations and Patient Flow Analysis Dashboard with Department Workload and Readmission Monitoring is developed to improve healthcare management through data-driven decision-making. This project leverages Power BI to convert raw hospital data into interactive and meaningful visualizations, enabling efficient tracking of patient flow, departmental workload, and readmission patterns. The system focuses on analyzing patient movement across various hospital departments to identify bottlenecks, minimize waiting times, and enhance resource utilization. It also provides insights into department-wise workload distribution, assisting administrators in optimizing staff allocation and operational efficiency. Furthermore, the dashboard monitors patient readmission rates, which act as a key indicator of treatment effectiveness and quality of care. Key performance indicators (KPIs), including patient admission rates, discharge trends, average length of stay, and readmission frequency, are presented through intuitive visual elements such as line charts, bar graphs, and pie charts. These visual insights enable hospital authorities to make informed decisions, improve patient outcomes, and reduce operational costs. Overall, this project highlights the significant role of data analytics and visualization in streamlining hospital operations, improving patient flow, and enhancing the overall quality of healthcare services.
