Drivers of ED SatisfactionDrivers of ED Satisfaction• ED care ratings influenced most byStaff Concern and Empathy to pt & familyCommunication re condition / treatment /
waitFrequency of Communication (kept informed)Managed Wait Time
• Waiting Times, although important, are not primary drivers of satisfaction
• Ancillary & administrative aspects show lowest correlation
Drivers of ED SatisfactionDrivers of ED Satisfaction
• ED satisfaction is a product of the qualityand frequency of staff interactions and communications with patients.
Patient CommentsPatient Comments• Nurses were cold and unconcerned…my being there was a bother.• Nobody cared.
• Doctor didn't listen, was not attentive - neither doctor or nurse identified themselves
• I had NO knowledge of WHAT was the matter w/me!
• YOU DID NOT GIVE ME RESPECT• I am only the patient your doctors think they are better &
demeaning, non-compassion.
• Extremely long wait with NO explanation.• No one came in over a 5 - 6 hr period & told me what my test
results were or what was going on.
*Most often, despite the actual waiting time, patients are more dissatisfied not knowing what to expect, not being adequately informed of delays, all pointing to poor communication.
