Summary:OBJECTIVETo report the results of a survey directed at medical and nursing staff as a method of improving the quality of procedures, in accordance with standard ISO 9001:2000.METHODCross-sectional study using a self-administered questionnaire. A sample size of 405 was calculated as 405, for nurses and 337 for medical staff, assuming an overall percentage of satisfaction of 80%, with a precision of 3.5% and an alpha risk of 0.05.RESULTSThe response rate was 46.4% for nursing staff and 24.3% for medical personnel. The overall satisfaction was favourable in 80.3% of nurses and 96.3% of doctors. The best valued item by both groups was the friendliness of the pharmacist. The worst valued by nursing staff, was the compliance to the agreed opening times for dispensing orders, and for doctors, the pharmacy opening times.CONCLUSIONSThe perceived satisfaction by nursing and medical staff is one of the most useful sources of information for establishing improvement processes for accreditation in accordance with ISO 9001:2000.
