The Integrative Health Care Survey |
Welcome
This study is examining the views and needs of Australian’s in relation to integrative health care - a new approach to delivering health services to Australians by bringing together a broader range of services to better meet the needs of health consumers. The project is being led by the University of South Australia, in partnership with Flinders University and Endeavour College. Funding support for the project is being provided by Endeavour College.
If you have been a consumer of a health care service in the past 12 months (i.e. have consulted a health professional, or have been in hospital) or are a health care provider, we are inviting you to participate in this anonymous online survey. The survey will take approximately 15-20 minutes to complete.
Your participation in this study will be most important in ensuring that your views and needs, whether they be as a health consumer or health provider, are given due consideration in the development of a new health care service delivery model; this will ensure that the model has direct relevance to you should it be applied in practice. There are no foreseen risks to you in participating in this study. To thank you for your participation, we would like to enter you in a draw to win one of ten $50 gift cards. If you would like to enter this draw, please indicate this in the box specified on completion of the survey.

You may withdraw from the study at any point while completing the survey, but once you submit your survey, it will not be possible to remove your responses as your individual data will not be identifiable.
