About

This indicator is the percentage of acute care patients who reported that they were completely informed about what to do if they were worried about their condition or treatment after they left the hospital.

Calculations

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: Did you receive enough information from hospital staff about what to do if you were worried about your condition or treatment after you left the hospital?
