Abstract
Description
The University of Delaware conducted the DCMHS' FY 2000 Service Provider Survey in Jime and July of 2000. A total of 91 surveys were mailed. Surveys were sent to both contracting organizations and agencies providing services at a total of 59 different sites. This year, surveys were distributed to Chief Executive Officers/Executive Directors (CEOs), Program Site Directors (PDs), and Clinical Directors/Supervisors (CDs) identified as the total number of CEOs, PDs, and CDs in the network. Comparatively, in previous years only the CEOs and PDs within DCMHS' provider network were surveyed. A total of forty surveys were returned from the original set of 91 distributed, representing a (44%) response rate in FY 2000. In addition, three individuals who received the survey indicated that they were unfamiliar with DCMHS or that the site had not worked with any clients through DCMHS in FY 2000 and so could not respond to the survey. The response rate represents coverage of approximately one half of the sites that were surveyed. Thirty-two (54%) of the fifty-nine sites were represented by at least one response from a CEO, PD, or CD.
