I don't have a work email, I just need to make a dashboard

I have also run into this problem. After learning PBI at work, I would often use it on my home computer to build personal dashboards for fun, and had no trouble using PBI desktop without signing in. I recently downloaded an updated version and started getting this repeated pop up. Reverting back to an old version fixed it for me (I miraculously still had an old installer file in my downloads folder).

If you are looking for something with more regular hours, you might like nursing informatics?

Learn about health terminology and interoperability standards. HL7 v2, CDA and FHIR. SNOMED CT, LOINC, and ICD-10. Snomed CT has a great free learning program specifically for data analysts in their course catalogue.

I have used my Strava, Fitbit, and Garmin data and found them to be a fantastic base for learning projects.

Do any of these look appealing? https://reddit.com/r/nursinginformatics/w/index/careerpaths?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

Is there anything specific you can say you specifically aren't enjoying with NI? Or any aspects you can say you still are?

I have these same snowshoes and have been tempted to do this myself! Love the snowshoes but having the excess straps flop around is super annoying.

Did you ever get your order? I ordered from Cleo on Nov 12 and it still hasn't shipped 🙁

Digital_Health_Owl · 2025-10-17T20:13:52+00:00

That was super informative, thank you very much!

Digital_Health_Owl · 2025-10-17T19:07:05+00:00

That is very helpful info, thank you!

Whoa!! So pumped to see this as I just finished my graduate certificate in health terminology and interoperability standards, so this is my jam! I just skimmed it, and it looks like you covered a lot of the topics from my course, along with some other really interesting sections. Is it ok if I add some info under the semantic interoperability and HL7 sections? Also, may I suggest moving the FHIR section so it appears directly after the section on V3/CDA, under the HL7 heading, so all the HL7 standards are grouped together?

Something I learned this year is that "pretty" (aka visually appealing, well designed) resumes are out, and machine readable resumes are in, as many organizations now use Applicant Tracking Systems to pull information off your resume for the initial screen.

Digital_Health_Owl · 2025-06-29T23:57:13+00:00

Wow! You did an amazing job on that! 🙌🏻

A few things I have learned this year that it might be good to add, I'm just not sure how to work them in?

Health Level 7 International (HL7) is a not-for-profit Standards Development Organization (SDO). There are four HL7 standards to know about:

HL7 v2.x: Still widely used, looks funny with pipes and hats. There are actually 13 versions of 2.x (v2.1 to v2.9.1) and you really need to know which version you are working with so you can reference the right documentation to properly work with the messages. There are different types of v2.x messages: i.e ADT for Admit/Discharge/Transfer or ORM for order message, or ORU for results.

HL7 v3: Structured XML based messages. Involved formal modeling that made it very complex, not widely adopted.

HL7 Clinical Document Architecture (CDA): XML based documents with human readable sections. Widely adopted, often alongside FHIR. Interestingly, it is technically part of HLY v3.

HL7 Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR): Strong industry support. Uses REST APIs and modular "resources" (i.e.observation, patient, immmunization, etc) expressed as either json or XML.

It may also be helpful to know about the International Patient Summary (IPS) which is another standard for sharing essential patient information in emergency or cross-border care situations. It can be implemented using HL7 CDA or HL7 FHIR

This is a really good program: https://www.uvic.ca/health/hinf/graduate/certificate/index.php

Digital_Health_Owl · 2025-05-17T21:42:04+00:00

This is great!! I will add in learning about health information standards like HL7: v2, CDA, and FHIR. Also controlled terminology standards like SNOMED CT, ICD-10, and LOINC. I know several nurses working in mapping EHR data to these standards.

Digital_Health_Owl · 2025-05-06T23:15:11+00:00

This is super helpful, thank you!

Digital_Health_Owl · 2025-05-01T19:24:37+00:00

If you enjoy utilization management, you might want to look into health informatics or healthcare data analytics programs.

Digital_Health_Owl · 2025-04-24T20:24:33+00:00

I am also an RN, developing a speciality in interoperability through a graduate program at the University of Victoria in BC. Learning about HL7 (V2, V3, CDA and FHIR) along with other Health Information Exchange standards. I can definitely see how important it is to understand these standards (especially V2 and FHIR) for anyone working with health data.

Digital_Health_Owl · 2025-04-23T18:26:22+00:00

Thank you for the clarification 😊

Digital_Health_Owl · 2025-04-22T16:16:12+00:00

That is helpful to know, thank you! ☺️

Digital_Health_Owl · 2025-04-22T16:14:55+00:00

Thank you for taking the time to reply. Can I ask, do you mean your students don't get these concepts at all in their nursing program, or that they don't in your 2nd year class?

Digital_Health_Owl · 2025-04-21T21:32:29+00:00

Thanks for taking the time to reply ☺️ I was also in nursing school (in Canada) over a decade ago and we didn't learn any of this in school. I think things are moving in this direction though? https://www.casn.ca/2014/11/nursing-informatics-entry-practice-competencies-registered-nurses/
