In August, we asked Aruma participants and families to tell us what they think of Aruma through a survey.  

We do this survey twice a year for people who use Aruma’s Home & Living and Community Services. 

The results are great. We had more people complete the survey this time. 

We had a total of 820 responses. This came from 477 participants and 343 family members.  

Our family feedback response rate has gone from 34% to 42%. 

Aruma’s Net Promoter Score (NPS) has gotten better.   

What’s a Net Promoter Score (NPS)? It is a number that explains how likely people are to recommend Aruma.  

Someone is a promoter when they give us a high score like 9/10 or 10/10. 

This year our NPS is +44. In the last survey it was +35. This result shows our score is improving. 

 

Some other great findings: 

  • 59% of promoters like our staff, calling them helpful.  
  • Aruma scored 88% or higher on all Quality Goals: Your Way, The Safe Way, The Right Way, Together. 
  • 95% of participants feel safe and respected. 

 

This survey also tells us how we can improve. 

 

Areas of improvement: 

  • We respond to complaints better. 
  • We communicate better. 
  • We listen to what you tell us. 
  • We support you in a way that suits you. 
  • We support you to find more activities in the community that you want to be involved in. 
  • We have enough staff to support you. 
  • Make billing easier. 

 

We want to hear from you. You can give us feedback any time.  

  • Speak to a staff member or manager

Or you can tell us in the next survey. The survey will happen again in March.
