About

This indicator is the percentage of acute care patients who reported that the hospital staff always did everything they could to help them with their pain.

Calculations

This indicator is based on respondents who needed medicine for pain. 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 the hospital staff do everything they could to help you with your pain?
