About

This indicator is the percentage of acute care patients who reported that they were completely informed about their condition and treatment while waiting in the emergency room [when admission is through ER].

Calculations

This indicator is based on respondents who have an admission through ER. This indicator is calculated by dividing the number of respondents who answered "completely" by the number of respondents who answered "not at all, partly, quite a bit or completely" to the question: When you were in the emergency department, did you get enough information about your condition and treatment?
