Shawna McCaghren
@shawnamccaghren
I turn complex operational data into quality improvements, automated reporting, and leadership-ready insights.
What I'm looking for
At Island Health, I connect patients, clinical partners, and executive leadership to resolve high-stakes care concerns and drive systemic quality improvements. I analyze patient feedback and clinical data, identify operational trends, and present compliance reporting that informs policy adjustments.
I previously built automated operational reporting at Shaw Communications using Alteryx, Tableau, SharePoint, FTP servers, and Power Automate. My work improved data quality, reduced manual processing, standardized workflows, and gave leadership clear KPI visibility.
I've also supported emergency services records, regulatory compliance, technical operations, and large-scale virtual technical support. I bring a patient-centred, quality-focused approach to translating complex data into practical recommendations.
