Calculations

This indicator is based on respondents who prefer to receive services in French. 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: During this hospital stay, how often did you receive servics in your preferred language?
