AimTo determine patients’ satisfaction with nursing care during hospitalization.BackgroundLimited studies reporting patients’ satisfaction with quality of nursing care in Singapore.MethodA descriptive study was conducted in a tertiary hospital in Singapore.ResultsData were collected from 270 adult patients using the Revised Humane Caring Scale. Patients were moderately satisfied with the nursing care. There were significant differences of patients’ level of satisfaction between/among socio-demographic subgroups including ethnicity, gender, reasons for admission and disciplines. Chinese patients were least satisfied with nursing care. The patients were most satisfied with ‘Respecting patient’s feeling’ (mean = 82.29, SD = 14.50) and least satisfied with ‘Communication and participation’ (mean = 62.00, SD = 16.46).ConclusionOur results reinforced the need to pay more attention to patient information provision and effective communication, which could improve patient satisfaction. The multi-ethnic patients valued respect as an influential attribute in quality nursing care.
