Abstract

In order to achieve patient satisfaction, medical employees must work daily to improve the quality of work in all medical institutions. It is a process that aims to achieve efficiency in the process of working with patients, in order to achieve their satisfaction. Responsibility of providing quality and quantity of sufficient health care lies with health care employess including doctors, nurses / technicians, management, non-medical staff, but also those who use health care. Providing rewards and achieving the goals of healthcare workers is a condition for motivation. Institutions must meet the requirements of medical workers, but there must also be a political will as well in order for medical workers to fulfill their duties. The main purpose of the study is to explore, determine a direction (positive / negative) in relation to patient satisfaction with the provided / received medical care / service, that is, the quality of interaction (services provided), taking into account: medical personnel (doctors and nurses), access to the institution, and the environment in the medical institution. The study of patient satisfaction with the quality and safety of medical services involved 126 users of medical services in four health institutions. 120 interviewed patients have completed the questionnaire in total, 6 patients have not completed the questionnaire and 6 questionnaires will not be accepted for statistical processing and analysis. In our work, 83% of patients of both sexes are satisfied with working hours. In order to achieve a more significant improvement in the quality of services provided, it is necessary to organize a system that meets the needs of users and coordinate medical procedures for the benefit of users, increasing the quality of services to a higher level.
