This report provides a detailed summary of the Department's online public survey on Dignity in Care, set up to hear directly from the public about their own experiences of being treated with dignity by care services, or about care they had seen being provided to others.

Background to the survey

In June 2006, the Minister for Care Services, Ivan Lewis, launched an online survey to hear directly from the public about their own experiences of being treated with dignity in care services, or about care they had seen provided to others.

The survey was a great success with over 400 people, (both members of the public and professional health and social care staff) taking part before it closed at the end of July.

Below find attached the main report of the survey and the report on people's views.
