Patient surveys - A key to organizational change?
Patient Education and Counselling, 10/20/09
Riiskjaer E et al. – Patient surveys may be an incentive for change if: (1) they have sufficient validity; (2) feedback is detailed on an organizational level and the units have significantly lower scores than comparable units; and (3) there are obvious actions to address the problems. Both qualitative and quantitative results should be analyzed for small organizational units within hospitals. Perceived usefulness of the surveys may be increased by involving medical professionals in the design and evaluation of the survey system.
