Pearson’s consent coefficient (χ2) was used for determination of the differences in the answer structures.
The reliable difference in the index of general satisfaction of doctors (95 % DІ: 69,87 %; 76,31 %) and hospital nurses (95 % DI: 70,10 %; 75,39 %) was not revealed. Analogously there were not revealed such differences in the index of general dissatisfaction of doctors (95% DІ: 17,97 %; 24,09 %) and hospital nurses (95 % DІ: 16,76 %, 21,80 %). The structures of answers to the question about patients’ attitude did not reliably (р<0,05) differ (94,12 % of doctors, 79,52 % of hospital nurses answered “YES”), about improvement of medical help at material stimulation by patients (20 % of doctors, 13,25 % of hospital nurses – “YES”), about the choice of own profession again (41,18 % of doctors, 20,48 % hospital nurses – “NO”).
