Each year, VHA compiles a Client Experience Report highlighting what our clients and families told us about their experiences with our services. Between June 1, 2025 and May 31, 2026, VHA’s Client Engagement team collected and analyzed 4,068 pieces of client feedback, including satisfaction surveys, compliments and complaints.

Some of the most notable highlights include:

📊 87% overall satisfaction
🤝 91% of respondents said they were treated with courtesy and respect
💙 91% said they felt safe during their care
📉 30% reduction in client and family complaints

These results provide valuable insight into what we’re doing well and where there are opportunities to improve. Most importantly, they reinforce the importance of listening to our clients and families and involving them in their care journey.

Thank you to every client, family member, service provider and staff member who contributed to this year’s report. Delivering and continually improving client and family-centred care is a team effort.

We’re proud to announce the recipients of the 2026 Graduate Research Awards:

For the past seven months, Zahra has been volunteering at Kew Beach – a transitional care location born out of a partnership between VHA and Michael Garron Hospital. Each week, she spends time with senior patients at Kew Beach, providing companionship through conversations, listening to stories, sharing laughs and spending quality time together.

“I have always been interested in working with older adults and supporting people within my community. As a Global Health student, I’m especially interested in aging, disability, and community-based care, so I wanted to find an opportunity where I could gain meaningful experience while also giving back,” says Zahra. “VHA’s Companion Link for Seniors program really stood out to me because of its focus on companionship and helping older adults stay socially connected.”

For Zahra, volunteering is more than just a way to build valuable experience. It’s become something she genuinely looks forward to and a meaningful part of her week.

When asked what advice she’d give to others thinking about volunteering at VHA, her answer is an easy one. “I would definitely encourage them to do it! It’s such a rewarding experience because you’re not only giving your time to someone else, but you also learn so much from the people you meet. You get to hear their stories, build genuine connections, and see how much of an impact something as simple as spending time with someone can have. It has been a really meaningful experience for me, and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys connecting with others and giving back to their community.”
