About

This indicator is the percentage of acute care patients admitted without going through the emergency department who reported that they were completely informed about what was going to happen during the admission process.

Calculations

This indicator is based on respondents who were not admitted through the emergency department. 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: Before coming to the hospital, did you have enough information about what was going to happen during the admission process?
