Abstract:
The Fraser Health heart function clinics explored patient satisfaction using a survey with the goal of understanding and improving care and service delivery. Data were collected from 124 respondents at 3 ambulatory care sites in the region. Patient satisfaction scores were high, with an average score of 8.85 out of 10 and 95% of respondents rating the service higher than 6 out of 10. The results highlighted the importance of multidisciplinary teams, good communication, adequate information, and emphasis on how a patient is treated. The patient's understanding of the information provided and of their heart health treatment plan were identified as two areas that require greater awareness.
