Consumer Experience Survey – Chronic Kidney Disease Care Services

This survey is part of a wider project aimed at improving care for people and whānau living with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) in Aotearoa New Zealand. CKD is a long-term condition that affects more than 1 in 10 New Zealanders and requires ongoing care across both primary and hospital-based services. Your experiences and insights will help us understand what matters most to you, how well current services are meeting those needs, and where improvements are needed.

  • Only be reported in an aggregated and anonymous format.
  • Not be used for any other purpose.
