Caveats and Limitations
Several types of home care clients and services are excluded (e.g. end-of-life clients, respite services, nursing clinic services), suggesting these results cannot be widely applied to all home care clients and all home care services. Caregivers were surveyed in place of clients in the event any of the following criteria were met: 1) Client is <19 years of age at time of sample selection 2) Client is identified as cognitively incapable 3) Client is discharged from placement with one of the four discharge dispositions listed under the General Survey Inclusion Criteria. Surveying may be done while a person is still a home care client. They may feel like they cannot respond honestly because of risk to their services. This is mitigated by the survey not being conducted by the provider. 1) Client is <19 years of age at time of sample selection 2) Client is identified as cognitively incapable 3) Client is discharged from placement with one of the four discharge dispositions listed under the General Survey Inclusion Criteria Surveying may be done while a person is still a home care client.

Comments Summary
The survey is intended to be an ongoing evaluation tool, with four sample waves conducted annually in each region. The survey population comprises individuals who have received publicly funded home care services. Both active and discharged clients are included in the survey population.
