PINNACLE’S METHODOLOGY
Pinnacle interviews post-acute residents and family members via telephone. This helps providers hear exactly what their patients have said. Following survey best practices, these interviewers ask the respondent a series of approved questions and record the respondent’s remarks. Pinnacle recommends clients use these reports to create more specific, validated action plans.

Individual Surveys – Residents, patients, and family members usually have a lot to say about their care. You can request transcripts of the interviews for patients in your care network. You can learn about a patient’s individual experience with their senior care provider.
Awards – Pinnacle issues annual awards to the top care providers. Ask your partners which Customer Experience Awards™ they have qualified for.
Family Members & Prospective Patients
Whether you are considering a care provider for a loved one or whether you already have a care provider, ask them about their satisfaction levels. Ask them what they are doing well and how they are planning on improving some of their weaknesses.
