In the dimension, experience of the nurse in the care of hospitalized patients, it can be observed 69 patients that represents 48.3% are moderately satisfied with the experience of the nurse in the care and in the dimension satisfaction with nursing care in hospitalized patients, it can be see 93 patients that represents 65% are satisfied with the quality of care.
