Abstract

Abstract Background: While high patient satisfaction is linked to better healthcare outcomes like lower readmission rates and shorter stays, its direct impact on clinical results is debated. However, gathering patient satisfaction data offers valuable insights for hospitals. It helps identify areas for improvement in patient experience with staff, potentially leading to better clinical outcomes and empowers hospitals to make data-driven decisions for resource allocation. Since Remera Rukoma Hospital (RRH) lacks data on patient satisfaction and specific concerns, therefore, this study aimed to assess patient satisfaction level and identify areas for improvement in service delivery at RRH. Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted at RRH to assess patient satisfaction. A mixed qualitative and quantitative approach was used, involving surveys and interviews with 164 inpatients and 220 outpatients. Fisher formula was used to get 384 sample. Data collection occurred between September and November 2023. Response for satisfactions was estimated as follow: Very Satisfied, (>70%), Satisfied (=>50-69.9%), Not satisfied (=<49.9%). SPSS Version 25 was used in data analysis. Result: The findings showed that 43.06% and 56.96 are male and female respectively combining both in and out patients. It was found that 35.9 of out patients are dissatisfied with cashiers’ services, 46.9% among out patient dissatisfied with waiting time at pharmacy. However, 74.4% among inpatient were satisfied with admission process, and 69,5% of inpatient didn’t receive timely feedback on test results. On overall 52.55% of the participant were highly satisfied, 29%satisfied, and 18% were not satisfied. Conclusion: While Remera Rukoma Hospital received positive feedback overall, key areas need improvement. Communication gaps, lengthy wait times at pharmacy and cashier, medication stock-outs, and discharge delays require immediate attention. Addressing these issues through clearer communication, streamlined processes, better inventory management, and efficient discharge procedures is crucial to enhance patient experience and maintain the hospital's quality reputation.

Patient satisfaction Inpatients and Out patients Figures Figure 1 1. BACKGROUND Patient satisfaction is an important indicator of hospital healthcare quality( 2 ). Patient satisfaction ratings are routinely used to assess the quality of hospital care( 3 ). Patient satisfaction has received tremendous attention from healthcare providers, researchers and policy makers as an indispensable component of high-quality healthcare systems( 2 ). Recent research shows that patient satisfaction is associated with higher care quality and efficiency such as improved treatment compliance, lower readmission and mortality and shorter length of stay( 4 ). And also, recent publications highlighted that both patient experience and patient satisfaction are integral components of a high-quality health system framework and target for improvement in the transition to high-quality health systems in low-income and middle-income countries( 5 ) Despite ongoing debates regarding whether patient satisfaction can lead to better clinical outcomes( 6 ) ( 7 ). Patient satisfaction rating reduce information asymmetry, and the hospitals can use patient-specific satisfaction metric to identify areas for improvement, thus increasing patient experience with physicians and nurses and hopefully improving their clinical outcomes( 8 ) ( 3 ). It was found that time spent at discharge, and options given for post-hospital care, and lack of respect for patient preferences is the dimension less likely to result in overall satisfaction( 5 ). Satisfied citizens and clients are crucial for both government and businesses, and effective healthcare requires timely services, budget control, and good management( 9 ). For researchers, doctors, and even regulators, quality healthcare isn't just about results, it's about keeping patients happy too( 10 ). Several studies were conducted on patient satisfaction in different setting, however patient satisfaction level at Remera Rukoma District Hospital is unknown. Therefore, this study was assessed overall patient satisfaction at Remera Rukoma District Hospital. The findings of this study will contribute to a more comprehensive and efficient healthcare system in Rwanda, by increasing patients' experiences, optimising the allocation of resources as well as informing policy. 1.1 Problem statement Remera Rukoma Hospital plays a vital role in providing healthcare services to the Kamonyi District community. While the hospital strives to deliver high-quality care, anecdotal evidence suggests potential areas for improvement. However, there is a lack of systematic and comprehensive data on patient satisfaction levels and specific areas of concern. Limited understanding of patient satisfaction levels and key areas of dissatisfaction within Remera Rukoma Hospital, hindering its ability to implement targeted interventions and optimize healthcare delivery for the Kamonyi District community. Therefore, conducting a patient satisfaction survey is crucial for Remera Rukoma Hospital to gain valuable insights into patient perspectives, address existing gaps in service delivery, and ultimately enhance patient satisfaction in Kamonyi district, south community. 1.2 Research question What is the level of patient satisfaction regarding service delivery and hospital environment a Remera Rukoma Hospital? 1.3 Objective 1.3.1 General objectives The main objective of this survey is to assess patient satisfaction level and identify areas for improvement in service delivery at Remera Rukoma Hospital. 1.3.2 Specific objectives: To Assess the overall patient experience on service delivery at Remera Rukoma Hospital. To identify key areas of satisfaction and dissatisfaction among patients. To determine patient perspectives on specific aspects of care, including: Access to services, clinical interactions with medical staff, hospital environment and amenities, and discharge processes. 1.4 Significance of the study The research on patient satisfaction at the Remera Rukoma District Hospital provided important value for patients, health care providers and Rwanda's healthcare system. This research could contribute to a more comprehensive and efficient healthcare system in Rwanda, by increasing patients' experiences, optimising the allocation of resources as well as informing policy. 2. METHODOLOGY 2.1 Study area Remera Rukoma Hospital, is district hospital in Kamonyi District, Southern Province, Rwanda. It is located in 9km fro main road of Kigali-Muhanga. It provides range of service including both inpatient and out patient in all age group. 2.2 Study design This will be a cross-sectional mixed qualitative and quantitative hospital-based patient survey at Remera Rukoama Hospital. 2.3 Study population The participants were the patients attending outpatient department and those inpatients discharged in the hospital during the period of data collection, and consent to participate in the survey. For children and patient with mental disorders or not able to respond, the parents/caregiver were provided the information on their behalf. 2.3.1 Inclusion criteria The patient or next of kin who were aged > 18 years old, and who were conscious were included in this study. 2.3.2 Exclusion criteria The patient or next of kin who were aged < 18 years old, and who were unconscious were excluded in this study. 2.4 Sample Size Calculation The sample size was calculated using Fisher et al , 1998 formula n = Z α/2 2 *p*(1-p) / d 2 , n = 1.96 2 *0.5*(1-0.5)/0.05 2 n = 384 Where; n = sample size p is the sample proportion, Z α/2 is the critical value of the normal distribution at α/2 (e.g. for a confidence level of 95%, α is 0.05 and the critical value is 1.96), d is the margin of error (usually 5%), 2.5 Sampling method The sampling technique used to select the participants was purposive sampling. Data collector relied on their own judgment when choosing members of the population to participate in their surveys. Thus, in this survey, the selection of the sample was based on the surveyors’ knowledge about the health status of the participants. 220 and 164 out patients and inpatients were selected respectively to participated in the study, to give a total of 384 participants. 2.5 Data collection method Data collection was done by using a validated standardised patient satisfaction survey tool. Semi structured questionnaire was used for data collection. The questionnaires were distributed voluntarly to a sample of 13 inpatients and 26 outpatients (39 in total) who were present at the hospital in 14-15th August 2023 for pretesting a questionnaire. They responded to the question that were asked, and some grammatical error was noticed and collected to get a final questionnaire to be used in the whole data collection. On 01th September to 28th November, 2023 data collection was conducted by at a team of data collector selected from Remera Rukoma Hospital’s staff and University of Rwanda Student after being trained on how to use a data collection tool. Participation was voluntary after receiving the information or explanation regarding the patient satisfaction survey and its purpose. 2.6 Data analysis Data was summarized and factory analysis was performed by using SPSS version 25. Percentage of the response for satisfaction on each question, for each service was calculated respectively. Response for satisfactions was estimated as follow: Very Satisfied, (> 70%) Satisfied, coded as 2 ( = > 50-69.9%) Not satisfied, coded as 1( = < 49.9%) 3.

Overal satisfaction among the respondent Graph 1: Shows overall satisfaction level among the respondent 4. DISCUSSION This study offers important and interesting insights about patient satisfaction in Remera Rukoma Hospital. The findings of this study showed high overall satisfaction among the patients, this findings are consistent with the study which was conducted in international setting and Kazakhstan( 8 ) ( 5 ). This study emphasized the importance of patient decision making, time spent at discharge, and options given for post-hospital care. Similar findings were demonstrated in Hong Kong, where respect for patient preferences was a predictor of patient satisfaction( 12 ). Majority of the participants (88.6%) were satisfied by the information they were given regarding their illness, this findings is smilar the study which was conducted in Ethiopia( 1 ). Overall, 52.55% of the participants were highly satisfied. This level of satisfaction was higher when compared with other interventional study performed in Debre Markos Hospital, Ethiopia, which is 25% before the intervention( 13 ). But, compared with other studies performed on patient satisfaction in Jimma Specialized Hospital, Debre Berhan Hospital, and other study performed in Bahir Dar Felege Hiwot Hospital, the overall satisfaction level was low, which is 61.9%, 57.7%, and 57.8%, respectively( 14 ) ( 15 ) ( 16 ). This discrepancy may be due to the level of the hospital and/or workers capacity and motivation status of the health workers to attain higher patients' needs. Different study findings revealed that the relevance of information services given for patients, proper admitting processes, short waiting time to receive service, and ensuring privacy and confidentiality for services provided by the hospital had statistical association in other studies( 1 ). It was found that 48.2% of the participants among inpatients were not given an opportunity to discuss your health beliefs, concerns, and preferences. On the other hand, different literatures also indicate that quality of communication and interpersonal skills is also the key indicator for patient satisfaction( 17 ) ( 18 ). 5. CONCLUSION Overall, the patient satisfaction survey at Remera Rukoma Hospital was good, however some areas requiring immediate attention ware revealed. While certain aspects receive positive feedback, dissatisfaction pervades in key area including communication, Clearer communication channels and improved feedback to the patient are crucial. Cashier Service, Inefficiencies and delays at the cashier cause frustration and inconvenience. Streamlining processes and potentially implementing alternative payment methods could alleviate these issues. Pharmacy Wait Times, lengthy wait times at the pharmacy significantly impact patient satisfaction. Optimizing dispensing processes and potentially increasing staffing during peak hours could address this concern. Medication Availability: Stock-outs and limited availability of prescribed medications are unacceptable and compromise patient care. Robust inventory management and procurement strategies are essential to ensure consistent medication availability. Discharge Delays: Unnecessary delays in discharge create frustration and impede patient recovery. Reviewing discharge procedures and identifying bottlenecks can expedite the process. Addressing these primary areas of dissatisfaction is critical to improving patient experience and upholding Remera Rukoma Hospital's reputation for quality care. Implementing targeted interventions based on these findings will demonstrate the hospital's commitment to patient satisfaction and enhance its healthcare service delivery. 8. RECOMMENDATIONS Following the concerning findings of the patient satisfaction survey at Remera Rukoma Hospital, addressing the following areas is crucial to enhance patient experience and strengthen the hospital's reputation: Communication : Implement communication training programs for healthcare providers: Focus on clear and concise explanations, active listening and feedback of laboratory result, and addressing patient anxieties.

BACKGROUND","content":"\u003cp\u003ePatient satisfaction is an important indicator of hospital healthcare quality(\u003cspan citationid=\"CR2\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2\u003c/span\u003e). Patient satisfaction ratings are routinely used to assess the quality of hospital care(\u003cspan citationid=\"CR3\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e3\u003c/span\u003e). Patient satisfaction has received tremendous attention from healthcare providers, researchers and policy makers as an indispensable component of high-quality healthcare systems(\u003cspan citationid=\"CR2\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2\u003c/span\u003e). Recent research shows that patient satisfaction is associated with higher care quality and efficiency such as improved treatment compliance, lower readmission and mortality and shorter length of stay(\u003cspan citationid=\"CR4\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e4\u003c/span\u003e). And also, recent publications highlighted that both patient experience and patient satisfaction are integral components of a high-quality health system framework and target for improvement in the transition to high-quality health systems in low-income and middle-income countries(\u003cspan citationid=\"CR5\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e5\u003c/span\u003e)\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDespite ongoing debates regarding whether patient satisfaction can lead to better clinical outcomes(\u003cspan citationid=\"CR6\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e6\u003c/span\u003e) (\u003cspan citationid=\"CR7\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e7\u003c/span\u003e). Patient satisfaction rating reduce information asymmetry, and the hospitals can use patient-specific satisfaction metric to identify areas for improvement, thus increasing patient experience with physicians and nurses and hopefully improving their clinical outcomes(\u003cspan citationid=\"CR8\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e8\u003c/span\u003e) (\u003cspan citationid=\"CR3\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e3\u003c/span\u003e). It was found that time spent at discharge, and options given for post-hospital care, and lack of respect for patient preferences is the dimension less likely to result in overall satisfaction(\u003cspan citationid=\"CR5\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e5\u003c/span\u003e).\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSatisfied citizens and clients are crucial for both government and businesses, and effective healthcare requires timely services, budget control, and good management(\u003cspan citationid=\"CR9\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e9\u003c/span\u003e). For researchers, doctors, and even regulators, quality healthcare isn't just about results, it's about keeping patients happy too(\u003cspan citationid=\"CR10\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e10\u003c/span\u003e).\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSeveral studies were conducted on patient satisfaction in different setting, however patient satisfaction level at Remera Rukoma District Hospital is unknown. Therefore, this study was assessed overall patient satisfaction at Remera Rukoma District Hospital. The findings of this study will contribute to a more comprehensive and efficient healthcare system in Rwanda, by increasing patients' experiences, optimising the allocation of resources as well as informing policy.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"Sec2\" class=\"Section2\"\u003e \u003ch2\u003e1.1 Problem statement\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eRemera Rukoma Hospital plays a vital role in providing healthcare services to the Kamonyi District community. While the hospital strives to deliver high-quality care, anecdotal evidence suggests potential areas for improvement. However, there is a lack of systematic and comprehensive data on patient satisfaction levels and specific areas of concern. Limited understanding of patient satisfaction levels and key areas of dissatisfaction within Remera Rukoma Hospital, hindering its ability to implement targeted interventions and optimize healthcare delivery for the Kamonyi District community.

DISCUSSION","content":"\u003cp\u003eThis study offers important and interesting insights about patient satisfaction in Remera Rukoma Hospital. The findings of this study showed high overall satisfaction among the patients, this findings are consistent with the study which was conducted in international setting and Kazakhstan(\u003cspan citationid=\"CR8\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e8\u003c/span\u003e) (\u003cspan citationid=\"CR5\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e5\u003c/span\u003e). This study emphasized the importance of patient decision making, time spent at discharge, and options given for post-hospital care. Similar findings were demonstrated in Hong Kong, where respect for patient preferences was a predictor of patient satisfaction(\u003cspan citationid=\"CR12\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e12\u003c/span\u003e). Majority of the participants (88.6%) were satisfied by the information they were given regarding their illness, this findings is smilar the study which was conducted in Ethiopia(\u003cspan citationid=\"CR1\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e1\u003c/span\u003e).\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e Overall, 52.55% of the participants were highly satisfied. This level of satisfaction was higher when compared with other interventional study performed in Debre Markos Hospital, Ethiopia, which is 25% before the intervention(\u003cspan citationid=\"CR13\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e13\u003c/span\u003e). But, compared with other studies performed on patient satisfaction in Jimma Specialized Hospital, Debre Berhan Hospital, and other study performed in Bahir Dar Felege Hiwot Hospital, the overall satisfaction level was low, which is 61.9%, 57.7%, and 57.8%, respectively(\u003cspan citationid=\"CR14\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e14\u003c/span\u003e) (\u003cspan citationid=\"CR15\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e15\u003c/span\u003e) (\u003cspan citationid=\"CR16\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e16\u003c/span\u003e). This discrepancy may be due to the level of the hospital and/or workers capacity and motivation status of the health workers to attain higher patients' needs.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDifferent study findings revealed that the relevance of information services given for patients, proper admitting processes, short waiting time to receive service, and ensuring privacy and confidentiality for services provided by the hospital had statistical association in other studies(\u003cspan citationid=\"CR1\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e1\u003c/span\u003e). It was found that 48.2% of the participants among inpatients were not given an opportunity to discuss your health beliefs, concerns, and preferences. On the other hand, different literatures also indicate that quality of communication and interpersonal skills is also the key indicator for patient satisfaction(\u003cspan citationid=\"CR17\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e17\u003c/span\u003e) (\u003cspan citationid=\"CR18\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e18\u003c/span\u003e).\u003c/p\u003e"},{"header":"5. CONCLUSION","content":"\u003cp\u003eOverall, the patient satisfaction survey at Remera Rukoma Hospital was good, however some areas requiring immediate attention ware revealed. While certain aspects receive positive feedback, dissatisfaction pervades in key area including communication, Clearer communication channels and improved feedback to the patient are crucial. Cashier Service, Inefficiencies and delays at the cashier cause frustration and inconvenience. Streamlining processes and potentially implementing alternative payment methods could alleviate these issues.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePharmacy Wait Times, lengthy wait times at the pharmacy significantly impact patient satisfaction. Optimizing dispensing processes and potentially increasing staffing during peak hours could address this concern. Medication Availability: Stock-outs and limited availability of prescribed medications are unacceptable and compromise patient care. Robust inventory management and procurement strategies are essential to ensure consistent medication availability. Discharge Delays: Unnecessary delays in discharge create frustration and impede patient recovery. Reviewing discharge procedures and identifying bottlenecks can expedite the process.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAddressing these primary areas of dissatisfaction is critical to improving patient experience and upholding Remera Rukoma Hospital's reputation for quality care.

However, gathering patient satisfaction data offers valuable insights for hospitals. It helps identify areas for improvement in patient experience with staff, potentially leading to better clinical outcomes and empowers hospitals to make data-driven decisions for resource allocation. Since Remera Rukoma Hospital (RRH) lacks data on patient satisfaction and specific concerns, therefore, this study aimed to assess patient satisfaction level and identify areas for improvement in service delivery at RRH.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMethodology: \u003c/strong\u003eA cross-sectional study was conducted at RRH to assess patient satisfaction. A mixed qualitative and quantitative approach was used, involving surveys and interviews with 164 inpatients and 220 outpatients. Fisher formula was used to get 384 sample. Data collection occurred between September and November 2023. Response for satisfactions was estimated as follow: Very Satisfied, (\u0026gt;70%), Satisfied (=\u0026gt;50-69.9%), Not satisfied (=\u0026lt;49.9%). SPSS Version 25 was used in data analysis.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eResult: \u003c/strong\u003eThe findings showed that 43.06% and 56.96 are male and female respectively combining both in and out patients. It was found that 35.9 of out patients are dissatisfied with cashiers’ services, 46.9% among out patient dissatisfied with waiting time at pharmacy. However, 74.4% among inpatient were satisfied with admission process, and 69,5% of inpatient didn’t receive timely feedback on test results. On overall 52.55% of the participant were highly satisfied, 29%satisfied, and 18% were not satisfied.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConclusion:\u003c/strong\u003e While Remera Rukoma Hospital received positive feedback overall, key areas need improvement. Communication gaps, lengthy wait times at pharmacy and cashier, medication stock-outs, and discharge delays require immediate attention. Addressing these issues through clearer communication, streamlined processes, better inventory management, and efficient discharge procedures is crucial to enhance patient experience and maintain the hospital's quality reputation.\u003c/p\u003e","manuscriptTitle":"Patient satisfaction survey in a public hospital: Remera Rukoma District Hospital, Rwanda, 2023","msid":"","msnumber":"","nonDraftVersions":[{"code":1,"date":"2024-07-02 17:27:14","doi":"10.21203/rs.3.rs-4547163/v1","editorialEvents":[{"type":"communityComments","content":0},{"type":"decision","content":"Revision requested","date":"2024-06-10T10:14:09+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""},{"type":"editorAssigned","content":"","date":"2024-06-10T09:56:38+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""},{"type":"checksComplete","content":"","date":"2024-06-10T08:25:41+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""},{"type":"submitted","content":"BMC Health Services Research","date":"2024-06-07T15:56:05+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""}],"status":"published","journal":{"display":true,"email":"[email protected]","identity":"bmc-health-services-research","isNatureJournal":false,"hasQc":true,"allowDirectSubmit":false,"externalIdentity":"bhsr","sideBox":"Learn more about [BMC Health Services Research](http://bmchealthservres.biomedcentral.com/)","snPcode":"","submissionUrl":"https://www.editorialmanager.com/BHSR/default.aspx","title":"BMC Health Services Research","twitterHandle":"BMC_series","acdcEnabled":true,"dfaEnabled":false,"editorialSystem":"em","reportingPortfolio":"BMC Series","inReviewEnabled":true,"inReviewRevisionsEnabled":true}}],"origin":"","ownerIdentity":"adb110ff-f3b8-4989-b784-988646cbafc0","owner":[],"postedDate":"July 2nd, 2024","published":true,"recentEditorialEvents":[],"rejectedJournal":[],"revision":"","amendment":"","status":"published-in-journal","subjectAreas":[],"tags":[],"updatedAt":"2024-12-02T16:04:06+00:00","versionOfRecord":{"articleIdentity":"rs-4547163","link":"https://doi.org/10.1186/s12913-024-11996-9","journal":{"identity":"bmc-health-services-research","isVorOnly":false,"title":"BMC Health Services Research"},"publishedOn":"2024-11-27 15:57:53","publishedOnDateReadable":"November 27th, 2024"},"versionCreatedAt":"2024-07-02 17:27:14","video":"","vorDoi":"10.1186/s12913-024-11996-9","vorDoiUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1186/s12913-024-11996-9","workflowStages":[]},"version":"v1","identity":"rs-4547163","journalConfig":"researchsquare"},"__N_SSP":true},"page":"/article/[identity]/[[...version]]","query":{"redirect":"/article/rs-4547163","identity":"rs-4547163","version":["v1"]},"buildId":"8U1c8b4HqxoKbykW_rLl7","isFallback":false,"isExperimentalCompile":false,"dynamicIds":[84888],"gssp":true,"scriptLoader":[]}
