About this Table

Content and description

Data about the experience patients reported during their admission and discharge from a New Brunswick hospital. The indicators measure patients’ reported experience throughout the admission process whether the admission is through the emergency department or not and their experience when leaving the hospital.

Why is it important?
By better understanding the experience of citizens with New Brunswick hospitals, we can better assess the quality of services. This also encourages health system stakeholders to create performance targets based on care experience survey indicators.

Availability of the data
The information in this data table is available for New Brunswick in general, by the seven New Brunswick health zones, the two Regional Health Authorities, by hospital (medium and large hospitals), by type of care received, as well as by demographic groups. More information is available on our Hospital Acute Care Survey page.
