Özet

Objective: Today, the aging of the population and the increase in chronic diseases have caused the importance given to palliative care to increase day by day all over the world. The increase of the palliative care needs in Turkey has resulted in the increasing number of palliative care units. Considering that patient satisfaction and nursing care quality are directly related; in this study it was aimed to determine the nursing care satisfaction levels and the factors affecting this satisfaction in the patients hospitalized in palliative care units. Material and Methods: This study is a descriptive and cross-sectional study conducted in two state hospitals between October 2016 and December 2016. The sample of the study consisted of 154 patients hospitalized in the palliative units of two state hospitals. Patient information form and Newcastle Satisfaction with Quality of Nursing Care Scale were used as data collection tools. In the analysis of the data, since parametric test assumptions were not met, Mann Whitney-U Test and Kruskal Wallis H test were used. Results: There was no statistically significant difference between the demographic characteristics, income status, persons living together, attendant status and satisfaction level of nursing care (p>0.05). The levels of nursing care satisfaction among the patients differed in terms of dependency level, prior hospitalization and hospitalization time (p<0.05). Conclusion: Satisfaction levels were lower in patients who had no previous hospitalization experience. Therefore, it should be remembered for the patients hospitalized for the first time that they need nurse support and counseling in order to increase their satisfaction.
