Public Trustee represented persons client survey

The Public Trustee in Tasmania will be conducting its represented client survey.

We will be contacting a random selection of clients who are under a TASCAT administration order.

This survey will be from Wednesday, July 19 to Wednesday, August 9, 2023.

Feedback drives improvement:

Feedback is valuable to us as it helps us gain a better understanding of our client’s experience. It also helps us make improvements to our services and make better decisions to benefit everyone involved.

About the survey

We will be sending our clients a letter to inform them that we will be conducting a client survey.

We will call our clients via phone to ask them a series of questions about the services we provide. The survey will take approximately 15 minutes to complete.

Participation in the survey is voluntary.

 If clients choose not to take part, they can simply decline to take part when we call.

If they do not want to receive a call they can contact us by Friday 14th of July 2023, to be removed from the call list.  Clients or support people can call 1800 068 784 or email Marketing@publictrustee.tas.gov.au.

We are letting clients know:

  • Participation in the survey is voluntary.
  • They have the right to withdraw their consent at any time.
  • Their responses will assist us in improving our client service.
  • Responses will not be published in a form that will identify any individual participants.
  • Their contact details will only be shared with the researchers for survey purposes.
