About

This indicator is the percentage of citizens receiving home care services from a home support worker who are in the age group: 65 or more.

Source

New Brunswick Health Council, Home Care Survey

Calculations

This indicator is calculated by dividing the number of respondents who "are in the age category 65 or more" by the "total number of respondents", based on administrative data.

Notes

The 2021 edition of the Home Care Survey was conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic. While the pandemic did not influence the survey’s response rate, users are advised to use the survey data with caution, especially when creating estimates for small sub-populations or when comparing it to other editions of the survey.
