Abstract: Evaluation of the quality of the hospital care at individual departments of the clinic from the patient's perspective using a standard questionnaire.Retrospective observational studies.2nd Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University hospital Bratislava, Faculty of Medicine, Comenius University Bratislava, Slovakia.In the study we included all patients who were hospitalized in II. GPK from 1. 1. 2019 to 1. 3. 2019. When the patient was released, they received a HCAHPS questionnaire. Obtained results were statistically processed and compared with publicly available data from all USA hospitals.We received 481 questionnaires suitable for processing. 53.2% of patients evaluated the clinic as the best possible. 57.4% of patients would definitely recommend the clinic to their family and friends. The biggest difference between patients who rated the clinic as the best and those who rated it low were in nurse communication (OR: 6.19, CI: 4.46-8.63). At maternity ward we haven't found any statistical effect in impact of age, but in nurses communication, pain management, communiation about medicines we found significant statistical differences in impact of different education between women.The quality of nurses and doctors communication and instructing patients about medication has a significant impact on the clinic's evaluation. Women with university education at maternity ward evaluate quality of hospital care stricter, regardles of age.
