The 2021 edition of the Home Care Survey was completed by 7,786 citizens between January and March 2021. Survey respondents were asked questions about their experiences with several key dimensions of health care quality such as accessibility, safety, provider/client communication, client and family-centered care, and overall satisfaction with services.
The results were released on August 30, 2022.
