2 INTRODUCTION Patient impressions has a great impact on how patient s perceive the c they receive during their hospitalization. Health c leaders must recognize the key role that front liners play in terms of the initial customer impression of the organization. Every encounter of Patients with health c providers presents an opportunity to create a first impression. Regardless of where this contact has been made, engaging the individual customer /patient in a prompt, safe, courteous, professional manner is essential for the rest of the service experience to be positive. Inquiring patient satisfaction is one tool to find patient impression from the services provided Quality department of KKUH conducts Patient satisfaction every 3years to identify the as for improvements in c provision and service delivery. Outpatient Satisfaction Survey Questioner of 2014, third cycle signifies the patient experiences and impression with the health c and service providers.the questioner also reflects quality and patient safety activities of health c provider in the daily work based on the international standards. SATISFACTION DEFINED From the consumer s perspective, satisfaction is a multidimensional concept that can be seen as the extent to which a program fulfils clients treatment expectations or needs. From the health service perspective, satisfaction can be viewed as fulfilment of an obligation or claim (Donabedian, A (1988). The quality of c: How can it be assessed? Journal of the American Medical Association, 260, ). METHOD For the third cycle of OUTNPATIENT SATISFACTION SURVEY, new questioner was developed after reviewing the literature and brainstorming session in QMD. This new questioner was designed with the consideration to the Canadian Qmentum international standards and Required Organizational Practices (ROPs). The questioner is divided in two parts, first part consists of patient information and second part (61 questions) is related to ten domains such as appointment process, physician c, nursing c, pharmacy c, laboratory staff, X-Ray staff, hospital facilities and environment, patient rights, patient safety Overall satisfaction After finalization of the survey questions in English and translation in Arabic, database and prints of the questioner were prepd in both languages for our patients. Two surveyors were trained to conduct survey in male and female outpatient waiting as of KKUH. All Outpatient as of the KKUH were included in the study, except for the IVF clinics, Psychiatry and ER waiting as. Data collection started 16 th of Feb 2014 for 3 months. Before distribution of the survey questioner surveyors introduced themselves and explained the purpose of the survey. Patients who verbally consented to participation, survey questioner were given. In some instances where patients were willing to participated however needed assistance, the surveyors provided the assistance in reading and documenting the response to the survey. In Pediatrics outpatient, mothers mostly answered the survey questioners. 1 P a g e

16 CONCLUSION Outpatient satisfaction survey Target for 2014 third Cycle was 80%, and this was achieve with overall satisfaction of 82%. By considering all the responses that less than the mean opportunities for improvements, there will be 21 as for improvement according the Outpatient Satisfaction Surveyor 2014 (table above). Since the conduction of the survey Feb 2014, some improvement has been done such as" I am at your service" to help patients. This service assists clients as required. For the patients who required wheel chair for example there plenty wheelchairs available now. In the domain, Hospital and Facilities Environment question Foods and snacks fresh is still an a for improvement. Nutrition department may conduct a survey to find the preferences of our clients. In some occasions, patients rather bring food from home. Waiting time is an inconvenient and annoying issue for the patients; this issue is common in many as of hospital such as X-Ray services, appointment services, and pharmacy services as reported. The long waiting time has negative impact on patients impression. Comprehensive plan or mechanism with strict follow up is required from leadership to reduce the waiting time in the clinics and support services It has been said that patient experience and impression of health c services will influence their outcome, it is vital that the patients become familiar with their physician and treating team to build trust. In the training and orientations of the new physicians, self-introduction must be emphasized for better patient experience. Pharmacy services is an integral part of patient c services. It is important to have adequate number of pharmacist to be able to answer patients and to explain properly the dosages of the medicine. Equipping pharmacy with sufficient number of the pharmacist in the outpatient a will reduces the waiting time and dispensing errors. Patient rights is a new domain that was included in the questioner, patients' satisfaction increases when they told about the benefits and risks of their treatment. Patients feel empowered in general, when they involved in their c decisions. Physicians must be advice to communicate more and discuss with patients regularly about patients c and treatment options. Patient compliant / grievances and resolution is an important issue when we discuss satisfaction. Having the policy and procedures alone not enough, data from patient complaint shows and supports that many times complains remain unanswered for years. Strict policy compliance is required. Moreover, concerned individual must be accountable for timely complaint resolution as per policy. Inpatient satisfaction has improved since previous cycle; however, there still many as for improvement. It is up to the administration to lead and the rest of the hospital to follow the improvement path. 15 P a g e
