RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: The aim: To identify the main motivational components of improving the healthcare quality in health care providers in Sumy. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Materials and methods: The study involved data obtained from 187 doctors working in primary health care institutions, inpatient and outpatient departments of health care institutions in Sumy, during September-November 2020. The study used systematic, bibliosemantic approaches, comparative and statistical analysis, and logical generalization. The obtained data were processed and statistically analyzed with Google Forms and Microsoft Excel 2010 Windows. RESULTS: Results: The analysis of data received from the surveyed group of respondents showed that 83 doctors (44.39%) have 11-15 years' work experience, 51 people (27.27%) - 6-10 years, 40 people (21.39%) have up to 5 years of work experience and 13 people (6.95%) - more than 15 years. Most doctors (114 people (60.96%)) work for one position, 39 people (20.86%) work for less than one, while 34 people (18.18%) work for more than one position. The number of doctors who indicated that they were mostly overworked during the working day was 123 (65.77%), another 46 (24.60%) indicated that they were overworked during the working day correspondingly to their workload at occupied position, and 18 respondents (9.63%) answered that they were not fully loaded. At the same time, 91.98% of people indicated that the actual amount of their salary does not correspond to the workload, and there is no financial stimulation system for medical care quality increasing (87.70% of responses). CONCLUSION: Conclusions: The study showed that the healthcare facilities where the respondents work do not have an effective system of staff motivation for work quality (79.14% of responses). It was found that doctors are ready to work harder and better for additional pay, despite the high level of workload (88.24% of responses), and consider it necessary to introduce an effective stimulation system to improve the quality of medical services (96.79% of responses).
