EBOM-2009 IEQc2.1:Occupant Comfort—Occupant Survey

Occupant Survey Form

Hello. I am preparing to conduct the occupant comfort survey in a hospital. I am not sure if the below form is valid: /// Survey form based on: LEED for Existing Buildings: Operations & Maintenance Indoor Environmental Quality Credit 2.1 – Occupant Comfort – Occupant Survey Comfort Category -3-2-1 0 1 2 3 N/A A. Thermal Comfort B. Acoustics C. Indoor Air Quality D. Lighting Levels E. Cleanliness F. Other (please specify): Follow-up Questions: (Please comment on anything that receives a -1 rating or below.) 1. Can you describe the problem? 2. Has corrective action been attempted? (Yes, No)Comment: 3. Has there been any response to your request? (Yes, No, N/A)Comment: 4. To the extent that anonymity is not compromised, please indicate the general location, if appropriate, for any problems noted. /// I noticed the template in documentation toolkit is different & more detailed. The recommendation is to use a "brief survey". Due to the number, diversity of functions & workplaces of the hospital's occupants, the above form seems to be more practical. It is our first survey, & I am not sure if it would gather enough information for appropriate action plans & meeting credit requirements. Any help in that regard would be appreciated. Thank you.

This looks adequate to me- I have always found a simple, direct survey to be best. I would suggest that you add a description of what each value on your -3 to +3 scale represents, though, since this scale is likely new to those taking the survey.

Hello everyone, I am trying to implement a comfort survey for worldwide office occupants. I am planning to use the detailed template, but it may be too long to answer, and as a consequence not as relevant as expected. Do you usually use the detailed version? What are your feedback (very useful, very detailed, too long to answer,...)? Have you implemented a shorter version (like the one mentioned by Aurélie Kazour)? Thanks for your answers and comments.
