About

This indicator is a composite percentage score, based on 2 individual questions in the survey, that represents to what extent hospital staff responded quickly to the needs of acute care patients.

Source

New Brunswick Health Council, Hospital Acute Care Survey

Calculations

This indicator is calculated by dividing the total number of 'always' responses to the questions 'During this hospital stay, after you pressed the call button, how often did you get help as soon as you wanted it?' and 'How often did you get help in getting to the bathroom or in using a bedpan as soon as you wanted?', by the total number of responses given as 'always, usually, sometimes or never' for these 2 questions.
