The source adds the following information: "This year, for the first time, participants of the survey were offered the choice of responding online or via paper-based questionnaires. With support from key stakeholders, CQC took the opportunity to review and update the questions, terminology and methodology used in the survey. The sampling month also moved from July to November. As a result, the 2020 survey results are not comparable to previous years."
