Discuss How Your Agency Has Utilized The "Ask Me!" Survey Results.
On Bee Homes' quest to offer quality services to individuals with special needs, the agency has embarked on an "ASK ME" strategy survey plan since its inception.
The survey feedback has fine tuned its broad network by identifying areas needing improvement and including them in the Agency's plan for the provision of quality and desired services for individuals with special needs.
The data received on this survey is reviewed as part of the Agency's quality Assurance plan. Any Areas identified as needing improvement are integrated into the agency's plan for follow up. A comprehensive report and analysis of the Agency's quality assurance strategies and the survey feedback are usually submitted to Maryland's Office Of Health Care Quality (OHCQ) and the Developmental Disabilities Administration (DDA). Bee Homes, Inc. has effectively utilized the "ASK ME" survey data as a guide to providing quality services to individuals and the Agency in a a broader prospective.
The "Ask Me!" Survey Results is available for the general public
