Proposes, through the research, to identify from the perspective of former patients what results they hoped to achieve prior to discharge from hospital and what facilitated and hindered them in achieving these results. Reports that a representative sample was selected for the study. Forty‐one former patients each participated in up to two focus groups, with a total of 16 focus groups conducted.

Abstract

Organizations often view current market situations from the customers’ viewpoints. To do so, they face an incredibly vast volume and variety of data. Data visualization makes huge amounts more accessible and understandable and helps to communicate complex information more accurately and effectively. This chapter discusses how to utilize user-generated data in the tourism industry to enhance the customer experience through data visualization tools. Five analysis tools are used to identify the factors that contribute to hotel guests’ dissatisfaction in five top city destinations. Identifying and eliminating dissatisfaction is the first step in enhancing the quality of the experience and in fostering loyalty in the long run.
