About

This indicator is the percentage of acute care patients who reported that they always received help in getting to the bathroom or in using a bedpan as soon as they wanted.

Calculations

This indicator is based on respondents who needed help getting to the bathroom or using a bedpan. This indicator is calculated by dividing the number of respondents who answered "always" by the number of respondents who answered "never, sometimes, usually or always" to the question: How often did you get help in getting to the bathroom or in using a bedpan as soon as you wanted?
