ABSTRACT
This study seeks to identify background characteristics of the people who utilize health care services in Trinidad and Tobago and to investigate their perceptions of the services offered. Data were collected through a survey of health care users distributed throughout Trinidad and Tobago. Multi-stage sampling was used to select 1500 health care users and structured interviews were conducted on regular clinic days by trained personnel. Results indicate that there are fairly high levels of patient satisfaction with health care centres in Trinidad and Tobago and that the more disadvantaged groups (the elderly, women and the unemployed) utilize these services more frequently. Results also show variations with respect to pay, services that need improving and doctor's willingness to listen to problems. (AU)
