Calculations

This indicator is calculated by taking the sum of the weighted proportions obtained for the following three indicators: AU_CWN01_1, AU_CWN02_1 and AU_CWN03_1. This sum of weighted proportions is then divided by the sum of the weighted number of respondents to these same three indicators. The questions to which these indicators refer are as follows: 'During this hospital stay, how often did nurses treat you with courtesy and respect?', 'During this hospital stay, how often did nurses listen carefully to you?' and 'During this hospital stay, how often did nurses explain things in a way you could understand?'. This composite score calculation methodology is the same as the one used by the Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI).
