Patient Satisfaction and Experience at Migrant Health Centres in Turkey Abstract Patient satisfaction and experience at migrant health centres in Turkey Abstract A cross-sectional study of patients attending migrant health centres in 16 provinces in Turkey showed an overall satisfaction rate of 78.2% with health services. This is relatively high compared with similar studies that have evaluated services provided by a specialized unit for refugees or with sensitivity to language and cultural needs. The service with the highest satisfaction rate was psychological or social assistance (84.8%). Factors related to service and communication were significant determinants of patient satisfaction. Respondents who received explanations of their medical condition from the doctor were 8.9 times more likely to be satisfied. Respondents who felt that they had enough time with the health worker or received a comprehensive examination and respect from both doctors and nurses were more likely to be satisfied. The amount of time spent waiting to see a health worker was also a significant predictor of patient satisfaction. Some improvements in physician–patient interaction and communication are recommended to empower patients to participate in managing their treatment and overall health.

    Assessing the health literacy and health communication needs of Syrian refugees in Turkey © WHO ABSTRACT Health literacy in health care is crucial to achieving a reduction in child mortality, improving maternal health, combating infectious diseases and improving health outcomes. However, refugees and migrants may have lower health literacy than the host community, most often due to poor access to educational resources and information programmes, and related to economic, social and language barriers. Refugees may also have difficulty interacting with health information due to low literacy levels and cultural and language challenges. This publication presents an assessment of health literacy and health communication, including health information needs and sources of information, among Syrian refugees in Turkey. It describes health literacy and the factors that determine health literacy, health information needs, common sources and channels of health information, and barriers to health communication among Syrian refugees. The publication concludes with recommendations for improving health literacy and health communication, including targeted, culturally sensitive health communication through preferred and commonly used channels that are endorsed by trusted sources.

A recent review of the global burden of disease showed that it is one of the top ten risk factors for health globally1. Worldwide an estimated 7 million people died prematurely because of pollution; in the European Union (EU) 400,000 people suffer a premature death2. The Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) predicts that in 2050 outdoor air pollution will be the top cause of environmentally related deaths worldwide3. In addition, air pollution has also been classified as the leading environmental cause of cancer4. Impacts of air pollution in Turkey It is still difficult to gather adequate and verified data on air pollution in Turkey. From the evidence available, Turkey emerges as a country with one of the highest rates of premature deaths due to air pollution in Europe. According to recent estimates5, in 2010, 28,924 people in Turkey died prematurely from ambient PM and ozone exposure.

  • Strategic Planning for Health: a Case Study from Turkey
    Strategic planning for health: a case study from Turkey Strategic planning for health: a case study from Turkey By: Anne S. Johansen ABSTRACT This report explores the role of strategic planning in Turkey’s successful transformation of its health sector since 2002. It analyses the evolution of strategic planning for health from an informal tool to an official and highly structured process that closely follows the steps identified in accepted models of strategic planning. The report also analyses the process employed to prepare Turkey’s strategic plans for health, as well as their contents, including the vision for Turkey’s health system, the Ministry of Health’s mission, strategic goals, objectives and the monitoring and evaluation framework with its indicators and targets. In addition, the report documents that Turkey’s most recent strategic plan, Strategic Plan 2013–2017, is an example of the new European policy framework – Health 2020 – put into practice at the country level. It therefore serves as an role model for other countries wishing to develop their strategic planning capacity.
