While the infant mortality rate was 9.9 per thousand in 2020, in 2021, it increased by 24% to 12.3 per thousand.

disabilities
- Authors: Fatma ERDEO; Aysun YEŞİLTAŞ
  Abstract: Aim: This study was conducted to investigate the reasons for choosing hospitals, which have an important role in healthcare providers, and to determine whether the reasons for choosing hospitals differ according to the descriptive characteristics of the participants. Materials and Methods: The population of the descriptive study consists of disabled individuals. Independent sample t-test and ANOVA test were used in the analysis of the data, and post hoc tests were applied to determine the differences between the groups.Results: It was determined that 61.6% of the participants are male, 54.4% are married, 51.2% of them were physically disabled and 38.4% of them were disabled for 21 years or more. In addition, it was determined that 56.8% of the participants applied to a hospital 1-4 times in the last year, 44% preferred a public hospital in general, 86.4% give importance to location in choosing a hospital.Conclusion: As a result of the study, while the service quality and cost to the consumer dimensions are in the first place in the hospital preference; recognition and physical element dimensions were seen as less important. It was determined that the most important factor in choosing a hospital is hygiene and cleanliness and the least effective factor was the sign/logo/colors of the hospital.
