Understanding and Using Your CDC Worksite Health
ScoreCard Results.
[Voiceover] This tutorial will provide information
on understanding and using your CDC Worksite Health
ScoreCard results.
Once you complete and submit your CDC Worksite Health
ScoreCard, you will have access to your results
and a variety of reports.
The reporting features
of the scorecard system are among the best reasons to create
and use your ScoreCard account.
You not only have access to your scores, but the opportunity
to generate and use reports for planning
and evaluation purposes.
To help illustrate the reporting features
of the online CDC Worksite Health ScoreCard system,
we will follow the fictitious employer, Our Healthy Co.,
as an employer administrator, Jane B. Well and team member,
Steve Hart, review worksite results.
An employer account must have at least one worksite in order
to access the CDC Worksite Health ScoreCard.
As this chart shows, Our Healthy Co. has three worksites
and each has a scorecard associated with it.
Viewing ScoreCard Results from the Employer Dashboard.
In this example, two of the three worksites
for Our Healthy Company have completed their ScoreCards
and have reports ready for viewing.
The employer administrator can access all reports
from the Employer Dashboard seen here.
On the right side of the worksite box,
the worksite reports column has three types
of auto-generated reports listed.
Clicking on the report name will open that report
for that worksite.Now,
let's look at the reports individually.
The Summary benchmark report shows the ScoreCard results
by topic.On the left side of the table is the topic name.
Next to that is the listing
of the total points possible for each section.
The next two columns are the West Coast Division's scores
for the past two years.
The green and red arrows indicate where scores increased
or decreased from the previous year.
The remaining three columns are the benchmark data
that show the West Coast Division compared
to other worksites in own Our Healthy Co.
; other worksite in the ScoreCard database
of similar size, and all other worksites
that submitted ScoreCard data.
As you scroll down the page, you will see a bar chart
of the benchmarking data that can be displayed
by overall score or by topic.
The reports can also be easily downloaded to Excel
or Pdf formats.Next is the detailed benchmark report.
The Detailed benchmark report shows, by topic,
the worksite's answers to the questions and point totals.
The scores given for "yes" responses are 1 point.
if the question represents a "good" practice, 2 points.
if the question represents a "better" practice and 3 points
if it is a "best" practice
for health promotion interventions based
on evidence and health impact.
The table includes the West Coast Division's scores
for the past two years.The three columns
to the right are the benchmark data.
The columns show the percentage of other worksites that answered
"yes" to the questions You can generate detailed benchmark
reports for any topic by using the drop down menu
and then exporting your report by clicking the "Export
to Excel" link You can return to the employer dashboard
by clicking the company name at the top of the page.
Next is the Interventions in Place report.
Clicking here will take you to the Interventions
in Place report This report allows the worksite
to see how many
of the interventions are currently in place.
The chart on the left gives an overall view
of the interventions rated good, better, and best.
In this example, the West Coast Division has 25
out of 53 best practices in place for all health topics.
The colored area indicates the number
of interventions in place.
The lightly grey shaded area indicates the number
of strategies that are not currently in place or the number
of questions that were answered "no".
The chart on the right is a breakdown of good, better,
and best interventions by topic.
For accounts with multiple worksites,
employer administrators like Jane B. Well,
can access the "scores for employers" report
to view side-by-side comparisons
of multiple worksites in their account.
Viewing Results from the Worksite Dashboard
From the worksite dashboard, team member Steve Hart,
can see the ScoreCard results
and access the summary benchmark report.
In addition, Steve is with the West Coast Division
but he can view the East Coast Division's scorecard
and summary benchmark report as well.
Let's take a closer look at additional results
that can be viewed from this scorecard:
The numbers to the right list the total points scored
for each topic.
The blue-shaded boxes to the right
of the point total illustrate the points scored
for each topic.
In this example, Steve answered yes to most
of the diabetes questions and scored 9
out of 15 possible points.
The blue bar is more than half shaded to indicate
that they received more than half the points.
At the bottom, you can see that this scorecard received 148
of 264 possible points.
By clicking on a topic from the dashboard,
Steve can view his answers to the questions
and the associated point value.
The radio buttons that allowed Steve
to answer the questions have been converted
to show his responses and the number of points received,
by question, with the total at the bottom of the screen.
Using the ScoreCard Results for Planning In both the summary
and detailed benchmark reports, there are links
to a resource list called "Resources for Action".
Click the "Resources for Action" link at the top or click
on the blue "i" icon next to each topic to view the document.
This document provides additional resources,
and information such as articles and toolkits for each
of the scorecard topics.
You can also download the document by selecting "pdf"
from the format drop down at the upper right side
of the document.
Here are some of the ways your CDC Worksite Health ScoreCard
results and reports can be used as a planning tool:
Complete the ScoreCard annually to document and report progress.
Review your scores to identify potential program gaps.
Use your scores to select strategies
to use and set priorities.
