ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
The study aims to investigate factors influencing parents' satisfaction with hospital care for children with craniosynostosis during hospitalization for surgery. DESIGN ANDMETHODS:
A mixed-methods study with a convergent, parallel design was used. Ninety-five parents responded to the Swedish Pyramid Questionnaire for Treatment, a 25-item questionnaire with six quality domains. In addition, 20 parents were interviewed about their experiences. Frequencies were calculated, and content analysis was used to analyze free-text comments and transcribed interviews.RESULTS:
Parents' assessment of the overall quality of care was high (mean 87%, range 10-100%). They were most satisfied in the domain staff attitudes and less satisfied with information routines and participation. Content analysis of the interviews gave two overarching themes Factors that parents experienced as facilitating good quality of care and Factors that parents experienced as impeding good quality of care.CONCLUSIONS:
Parents were generally satisfied with the care provided, and interviews captured parents´ views on important factors. Staff attitudes affected parents' perception of quality of care. PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS Clear information and dialogue as well as making parents feel they are part of their child's team can result in higher satisfaction, and allowing families to stay together in the hospital can ease the hospitalization experience. Using a theoretical model can help in suggesting relevant caring actions based on parents' reported care experiences.Palavras-chave
