The dashboard holds attendances, admissions, recurrent falls, referral routes, age, sex, co-morbidities, SIMD information and has an interactive heat map to look at different areas across Lothian.
The Falls dashboard can be accessed on Tableau dashboard by requesting permission from the owner “Bethany Hitchen”.
