ResumoAbstract Aim To evaluate patients’ satisfaction with the quality of nursing care and examine associated factors. Design A cross‐sectional, descriptive survey study. Methods The sample was composed of 635 patients discharged from a private hospital. Data were collected using “Patient Satisfaction with Nursing Care Quality Questionnaire” with a total of 19 items, and a questionnaire designed to record socio‐demographic characteristics and medical histories between January 1–May 31, 2015. Results Patients were more satisfied with the “Concern and Caring by Nurses” and less satisfied with the “Information You Were Given.” Patients (63.9%) described nursing care offered during hospitalization as excellent. Patients who were 18–35 years old, married, college or university graduates, treated at the surgery and obstetrics–gynaecology units, and patients who stated their health as excellent and hospitalized once or at least five times were more satisfied with the nursing care. According to this study, the nurses needed to show greater amount of interest to the information‐giving process.
