Survey Responses

Background: Diabetes prevalence continues to be a concern and the management of diabetes is important but costly. The prevalence of diabetes is greater among persons with a low income, including those who are uninsured or underinsured. Student-run free clinics (SRFC) are one resource to these patients who may otherwise lack access to medical care. Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess patient satisfaction with diabetes care at a SRFC in order to assist in identifying areas of improvement. Methods: A quality improvement survey was designed to assess patient satisfaction with overall care, as well as with routines and perception of care related to self-management, healthy eating, and exercise. Results: The survey was completed by 25 patients at a Toledo area SRFC. Established patients who were aged 18 years or older and diagnosed with diabetes, were invited to complete the survey. The majority of patients were satisfied with their diabetes care at the SRFC (88%). Fewer patients, however, reported satisfaction with the treatment for their diabetes (72%) and with their knowledge about diabetes (76%). Subanalyses of survey responses also showed significant differences when comparing sex, age, and length of diabetes diagnosis. Conclusions: The survey helped identify key areas in which the diabetes care provided at the SRFC could be improved. These areas included education about diabetes in general, as well as in understanding treatment, self-monitoring, and healthy eating and exercise options. Future research could explore survey results after specifying and implementing changes made to the education provided to the patients.

Improve Service Quality

Purpose Measuring healthcare service quality provides an objective guide for managers and policy makers to improve their services and patient satisfaction. Consequently, the purpose of this paper is to measure service quality provided to surgical and medical inpatients at Kerman Medical Sciences University (KUMS) in 2015. Design/methodology/approach A descriptive-analytic study, using a cross-sectional method in the KUMS training hospitals, was implemented between October 2 and March 15, 2015. Using stratified random sampling, 268 patients were selected. Data were collected using an importance-performance analysis (IPA) questionnaire, which measures current performance and determines each item’s importance from the patients’ perspectives. These data indicate overall satisfaction and appropriate practical strategies for managers to plan accordingly. Findings Findings revealed a significant gap between service importance and performance. From the patients’ viewpoint, tangibility was the highest priority (mean=3.54), while reliability was given the highest performance (mean=3.02). The least important and lowest performance level was social accountability (mean=1.91 and 1.98, respectively). Practical implications Healthcare managers should focus on patient viewpoints and apply patient comments to solve problems, improve service quality and patient satisfaction. Originality/value The authors applied an IPA questionnaire to measure service quality provided to surgical and medical ward patients. This method identifies and corrects service quality shortcomings and improving service recipient perceptions.

Objectives: To implement a prospective interventional clinical audit to evaluate the current clinical practice and the effect of standard interventions on the management of type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Methods: 254 patients with T2DM where recruited in a specialized diabetes care center in Al-Ain, UAE. The diabetes care components were audited before (baseline) and after (3 and 6 months) implementation of Institute of Clinical System Improvement (ICSI) guidelines. Data was compared against international guidelines to achieve target goals of normoglycemia, blood pressure (BP), and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C). We measured changes in mean scores of patient satisfaction level regarding diabetes care at similar intervals, by validated Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire (PSQ-18). Results: We observed a significant reduction in fasting blood glucose (FBG; mean± SD; 9.3 ± 0.03 vs 7.4 ± 0.3mmol/l; P=0.03), and HbA1c (8.7 ± 0.02 vs 8.1 ± 0.02 %; P=0.04) levels after 6 months compared with baseline. Patients who achieved target FBG and HbA1c levels improved significantly (45.7 vs 81.1%; P=0.03), and (40.1 vs 73.6%; P=0.04), respectively. The LDL-C levels improved, though this was not statistically significant. Patients achieving target of BP control improved significantly (SBP 142±7.6 and DBP 95±6.2 vs SBP 136±8.2 and DBP 87±5.8 mmHg;P=0.05). Conclusions: The results of this interventional audit were generally positive and emphasized the feasibility of improving the current clinical practice. Our individualized approach has helped us to achieve a better target in glycemic and BP control as well as patient satisfaction. Further research is needed to understand the long-term impact of our structured approach to improve the quality of T2DM care in the UAE.

Improvement of service performance, customer satisfaction, and loyalty give a significant contribution to business performance and profitability. This study aims first to identify the most critical factors related to hospital service performance in predicting the patient's satisfaction. Second, to examine the effect of patient satisfaction on patient loyalty. This research is a quantitative study with a cross-sectional approach, involving 280 outpatients conducted in two hospitals. Finally, the partial least square-structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) approach was performed to analyze the data. The result showed the lowest index performance is the outcome quality (49.84), and the highest is the quality of personnel (72.49). The calculation of the patient satisfaction index (PSI) is 67.48. Patient satisfaction is significantly influenced by the quality of personnel, outcome quality, social responsibility, administrative procedure, and physical aspect. Patients satisfaction has a significant effect on patient loyalty. However, health insurance, quality of medical care, and quality of pharmaceutical care have no significant effect on patient satisfaction. The map of importance-performance analysis (IPA) suggest the hospital institution needs to improve the physical aspect, administrative procedure and outcome quality. The overall patient are satisfied with the performance of hospital services. Patients are objective controls of an organization. Therefore, the focus of hospital managers on strategies for building relationships with patients.
