Patient’s satisfaction with nursing care is thought to be a key component in determining how patients perceive service quality. Quantifying patient satisfaction in both private and public healthcare settings can offer essential evidence on performance; consequently, reflected on quality management.
This study aims to explore patients’ satisfaction with the quality of nursing care.
A descriptive-cross-sectional study was conducted, involving 251 patients selected through a random selection method. Data were collected using the patient satisfaction with Nursing Care Quality Questionnaire, comprising a total of 20 items. The collected data were then analysed and interpreted using descriptive and inferential statistics. Data were analysed using SPSS V25.
The findings of the current study show that more than half (52.6%) of subjects were somewhat satisfied with the provided nursing education. Similarly, more than half (55%) of subjects were somewhat satisfied with the provided nursing care. Correspondingly, (60.2%) of subjects were somewhat satisfied with the overall provided nursing services, including both the educational and the actual direct nursing care.
Overall, patients expressed general satisfaction with the inpatient nursing care they received, and their perceived needs and care expectations from nurses significantly influenced their satisfaction levels.
