Abstract

OBJECTIVES:

To study the satisfaction of parents regarding their child with nursing care in government tertiary care hospitals in Peshawar, KPK.

METHODOLOGY:

A cross sectional study was done in three tertiary care hospitals in Peshawar District, KPK. Data was collected from 306 participants as a convenient sample size. Parents of children admitted in three units consisting of Pediatric Ward, Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and Pediatric High Dependency Unit (HDU) for at least 2 days in these units were included. Whereas, those who have stayed less than 2 days were excluded. Data was collected from 306 participants through a structured questionnaire. Informed consent was taken from the participants. The data was recorded and analyzed on SPSS version 20.0.

RESULTS:

The result of this study shows more satisfaction from parents toward nursing care provided to their child. But in some areas i.e. providing informational care and following hygienic conditions, the parents’ satisfaction was not positive.

CONCLUSION:

Parents as well as patient satisfaction are the key factors in relation to nursing care. Our study’s finding show great satisfaction toward nursing care.
