Öffentliche Meinung in Europa zur Patientenversorgung 2010

The survey covers the extent to which citizens perceived they are likely to be harmed by hospital- and non-hospital care, including to what extent they feel they are at risk of experiencing specific adverse events and to what extent they are informed about safety measures in their own country and in other EU Member States. The report then looks at awareness and probable use of different forms of redress, distinguishing between the adverse event occurring in one's own country or another EU Member State. Finally, the report provides information on respondents’ rating of the quality of healthcare in their country, how it compares to other Member States and the most important characteristics of quality healthcare.
