Relationship between patient satisfaction with nursing services and health awareness levels
Abstract
Patient satisfaction and health awareness are necessary pointers of quality healthcare, especially in nursing services where direct contact with patients is common. The study will examine the connection between patient satisfaction with nursing care and the degree of health awareness of patients. It also looks into the impacts of effective communication, empathy, cultural sensitivity, patient education and hospital environment in patient perceptions and health behaviors. Good health awareness helps patients to manage their health conditions, take prescription and do preventive measures, which increase patient satisfaction and confidence in nursing services. Health education programs and awareness campaigns conducted by the nurse are vital in enhancing patient knowledge, empowerment of self-management of chronic diseases, and proactive health behavior. The results also indicate that incorporating health literacy in nursing practice does not only enhance patient satisfaction, but also improves health outcomes. The Interplay between nursing services and patient health awareness is a vital understanding which is necessary to provide patient-centered care, enhance compliance to treatment, and create successful health promotion models.
