Instructions
Imagine that you are an executive for a health organization. As
part of your role within the
healthcare leadership team, you are tasked with analyzing
organizational data for decision-
making purposes. For this assignment, you will obtain raw data,
analyze it, and make

recommendations for organizational decisions. Please follow the
instructions below in
completion of this multi-part assignment.
Apply analytical results to facilitate decision-making
Part Competency Assessed Instructions
1 Apply analytical results to
facilitate decision-making
Create a presentation on your exploratory data analysis
of mined data sets for an executive healthcare team.
Include a summary of your analysis, statistical tables,
and data visualizations. Conclude your presentation on
the importance of executive dashboards.
2 Recommended organizational
action based on knowledge
obtained from data
exploration and mining
Based on your analysis, make three (3)

recommendations for evidence-based decision-making
relevant for organizational action or change.
3 Analyze clinical data to
identify trends that
demonstrate quality, safety,
and effectiveness of
healthcare
Examine the clinical data to identify trends related to
healthcare (1) quality, (2) safety, and (3) effectiveness.
4 Evaluate administrative
reports using appropriate
software
Obtain a raw data set from www.healthdata.gov and
explore the data set using PSPP. Generate analytical
outputs from PSPP that include the appropriate
selection of both descriptive and inferential statistics. If
you are not able to process one data set using
descriptive and inferential statistics, then select one

data set for descriptive statistics and another data set
for inferential statistics. Generate tables in PSPP that
reflect your statistical analyses and include at least
three (3) appropriate data visualizations.
5 Interpret inferential statistics Compose a discussion in which
you evaluate the
findings from your analyses—interpreting the
descriptive and inferential statistics.
6 Analyze statistical data for
decision making
Within your presentation, analyze the statistical data
for decision-making by organizing various
presentations of data visualizations—highlighting
multiple perspectives on the same topic.
7 Plan adherence to Institutional
Review Board (IRB)
Processes and policies
Demonstrate your understanding of IRBs by earning a

certification on national guidelines regarding human-
subjects research. Begin by first creating an account at
http://phrp.nihtraining.com/users/login.php. Once you
have completed the Readings for each module,
complete the quizzes and obtain the training certificate.
You will take a screenshot of your certificate of
completion and insert this image into this paper.
Following a screenshot of your earned certificate in
protecting human subjects, plan adherence to
Institutional Review Board (IRB) processes and
policies by reflecting upon the concepts of (1) Respect,
(2) Justice, (3) Nonmaleficence, and (4) Beneficence
by providing (A) your interpretation of the concept, (B)
an example of complying with the principle within
