Survey shows high satisfaction despite challenging year
An overall service satisfaction rate of 95 per cent show Gateways continued to deliver on its mission despite a challenging year, according to feedback from our latest annual user survey.
Thank you to the more than 300 service users, including participants, parents and carers, who took the time to provide this important evaluation and feedback.
“The staff are extremely dedicated and understanding of our needs.” – parent survey feedback
Despite the difficulties created by the pandemic during 2020 – with lockdowns and corresponding service changes – Gateways participants, families and employees demonstrated extraordinary resilience, flexibility and adaptability.
Feedback, while predominantly positive, also reflected the frustrations caused by service changes due to COVID-19. But we are pleased and grateful to see that this did not result in any changes to service user’s satisfaction. We thank you for your support, patience and understanding as we navigated this uncertain time.

- 94% of people feel supported by the staff, coordinators/team leaders, managers and other Gateways staff,
