ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the hospital employee satisfaction and trustworthiness in the background of the trusteeship mode and to find out the problems after trusteeship.Methods: Minnesota satisfaction questionnaire (MSQ) and the self-made questionnaire were used to conduct the survey.Results: The overall employee satisfaction (3.80±0.86) and trustworthiness (3.95±0.77)were higher.The highest level of trustworthiness concerned the cultural connotation (84.8%) followed by the management concept (82.8%) for overall satisfaction.The lowest level of employee satisfaction concerned income and workload (53.7%), followed by the working conditions and environment (55.3%).The administrative staff satisfaction was higher compared to that of medical staff (p=0.001), which showed significant statistical differences.Conclusions: The hospital has made some achievements after the trusteeship system reform, however, it still needs improvement and further strengthening in many aspects.The hospital must always keep abreast of the demands of workforce and improve the staff satisfaction so as to promote its continuous and sustainable development.
