Survey of Domiciliary Care Users in Northern Ireland 2009

This publication presents findings from the 2009 survey of home care service users, administered by Community Information Branch (CIB) of the Department of Health, Social Services and Public Safety (DHSSPS). The Northern Ireland Audit Office’s Older People and Domiciliary Care report (2007) highlighted the lack of information on the quality of domiciliary care in Northern Ireland. The subsequent Public Accounts Committee recommended that the DHSSPS collect information on the quality of domiciliary care. This survey was designed to focus on the service users' experiences of domiciliary care in relation to the level and quality of care they expect or need. It was also used to investigate whether the service users questioned had been involved in the planning of their care and to examine whether they had received written information about their care plans from their provider.

本出版物展示了由卫生、社会服务与公共安全部（DHSSPS）社区信息分支（CIB）于2009年进行的家庭护理服务使用者调查结果。北爱尔兰审计办公室发布的《老年人及家庭护理报告》（2007年）指出，北爱尔兰家庭护理服务质量信息匮乏。随后，公共账目委员会建议DHSSPS收集有关家庭护理服务质量的信息。本次调查旨在聚焦于服务使用者对家庭护理的体验，包括他们对护理水平与质量的期望或需求。此外，调查还旨在探究服务使用者是否参与了他们护理计划的制定，以及他们是否从护理提供者那里收到了关于护理计划的书面信息。来源机构：卫生、社会服务与公共安全部（北爱尔兰）。分类：未指定为国家统计的官方统计数据。语言：英语。备选标题：北爱尔兰家庭护理服务使用者。
