Hospital Report 2003: Complex Continuing Care is the second Hospital Report on Complex Continuing Care in Ontario developed by the Hospital Report Research Collaborative. Performance indicators are presented for four key areas of complex continuing care activity - system integration and change, clinical utilization and Outcomes, patient and family satisfaction, and financial performance and condition.

This report provides a set of detailed indicators that reflect many aspects related to complex continuing care. Complex continuing care programs can use the information provided in this report to describe, evaluate, and compare their performance.

Technical Reports describing the methodological approaches used to develop this report are available.
