We know that at the moment a lot of valuable staff time is expended on manual reporting. This can lead to inconsistencies in data visualisation across the organisation, and also limit the available time for staff to use this data to develop actions to improve.
Over the past 8 months significant consultation and work has been undertaken to plan, develop and refine new dashboards to alleviate these issues. We have also upgraded to the latest, high-specification version of PowerBI to ensure that we have increased functionality and flexibility in how we can report.
13 new Western Health Dashboards are being initially released between 12-16 December to help consolidate, simplify, and visualise the reporting functionality through a new, improved Power BI Service.
Please find the schedule here for the Dashboard Launch week, 12 – 16 December. All sessions throughout the week will be conducted via Zoom. Please click on the session in the schedule to access the Zoom link.
Access to the dashboards is via our new reporting platform with a link below:

If you haven’t accessed the platform before you will be prompted to logon. Please use your Western Health email address and password.
The 13 new dashboards are:
- Access & Flow overview
- Access & Flow – Emergency Department
- Quality & Safety – Clinical Incidents (Overview)
- Quality & Safety – Severe Incidents
- Quality & Safety – Overview
- Quality & Safety – Best Care (Person Centered Care)
- Quality & Safety – Best Care (Coordinated Care)
- Quality & Safety – Best Care (Right Care)
- Quality & Safety – Best Care (Safe Care)
- Quality & Safety – Medication safety (pictured right)
- Quality & Safety – Comprehensive Care – Nutrition
- Finance – NWAU reporting
- People & Culture – Employee Management & Development
Additional dashboards are also in development and will be released and added to PowerBI once finalised. A total of 48 dashboards will be eventually released.
