[Do patients and their families expect what we really offer them?].
Frequently we evaluate user satisfaction for the treatment procedures provided (quality perceived), but we do not study the prior expectations (quality desired). Our objective is to discover what these patient and their family expectations are about treatment procedures and nurses' role so that we can make improvements and contribute to maximizing the quality of treatment provided. The aspects which cause greatest concern so that a patient's hospital stay is comfortable are the interpersonal relationships with family members, room mate, and professionals. Furthermore, the authors evaluate the treatment with nurses as a primary aspect in quality treatment.
