“…to lengthy questionnaires. 2,4,12,13,15,16,21,30,32,33,36,41,[45][46][47] While single global measures have the advantage of being quick and easy to administer, they do not provide the specific reasons for a patient's degree of satisfaction with care. 25,29,30,35 Identifying those items or factors influencing patient satisfaction provides a richer understanding, and may allow clinicians to make those modifications necessary to maintain optimal levels of patient satisfaction with care.…”

“…Este trabajo se ha desarrollado a través de la construcción de un cuestionario provisional basado en la literatura científica existente, sobre el que se han realizado cambios y mejoras basados en la opinión de expertos y la propia población a la que va a estar dirigido, para finalmente constituir un cuestionario que sea válido, representativo y que se dirija a muestras de En la literatura científica existente hoy en día, se han hallado algunos estudios de satisfacción publicados, los más tempranos partieron de la identificación de las características de los residentes como la edad, género o raza, con el objetivo de predecir los niveles de satisfacción (Caminal, 2001;Saturno, 1995;Urden, 2002). Otros trabajos han investigado los atributos de la atención médica, de enfermería, los procesos de admisión, etc., con el propósito de identificar las propiedades que influyen en la satisfacción global de los residentes (Sitzia & Wood, 1997;Yellen, Davis & Ricard, 2002). Por otro lado, también se han analizado las propiedades psicométricas de algunos instrumentos de valoración de la satisfacción, estudiado la relación entre los servicios de las residencias geriátricas y la satisfacción global del residente (Asadi-Lari, Tamburini & Gray, 2004;Herborg, 2001; Rider, 2002; Quinn et al, 2004).…”

“…Elles peuvent être différentes de la réalité objective de l'expérience vécue à l'hôpital et ne pas correspondre à la perception du personnel soignant et à celle des gestionnaires (Stamps, 1984). La satisfaction des usagers sert également d'indicateur en matière de qualité des soins et elle est généralement considérée comme un résultat désiré des soins dispensés et des services disponibles (Ford, Bach, & Fottler, 1997;Grenier, 1998;Heinemann, Lengacher, VanCott, Mabe, & Swymer, 1996;Mahon, 1996;Perla, 2002;Vuori, 1987;Walsh & Walsh, 1999;Yellen, Davis, & Ricard, 2002).…”
