Patient satisfaction with nursing care quality is an important indicator of the quality of care provided in hospitals. This study tested a newly developed patient-centered measure of patient satisfaction with nursing care quality within a random sample of 14 hospitals in Ontario, Canada. Results of this study revealed that the newly developed instrument had excellent psychometric properties. Total scores on satisfaction with nursing care were strongly related to overall satisfaction with the quality of care received during hospitalization. The results of this study yielded actionable, patient-focused results that can be used by managers to address areas requiring improvement.
