6. Dr. Mohabir presented the results of the CF Clinic survey. The survey window was from 11/1 to 1/31 and 16 surveys were received. The survey looked at the following areas: Ease of getting care, Interactions with staff members, Overall Satisfaction, Team member Satisfaction (by profession). Overall, the results were positive with a majority of the scores falling in the 4's and 5's (on a 5-point scale with 5 being the highest and 1 being the lowest). The survey data was pooled by a volunteer and reviewed by Dr. Mohabir and M. Martel, NP. The plan going forward is to do another 3-month survey with the goal of having 30-35 completed questionnaires.
7. Several forms are circulating regarding the "We want to hear your voice" flyer. This flyer includes information about the ACFAC, but is also intended to serve as a way for patients to communicate and provide feedback. It was discussed that the multiple forms may be causing confusion, and its use / lack of use was discussed.
