This study aimed to determine the relationship between the quality of inpatient staff services and patient satisfaction at Siti Hajar Islamic Hospital, Mataram. An analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted from February to May 2026. The study involved 50 inpatient respondents selected using the Lemeshow sample size formula. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and direct observation.

The results showed that 100% of respondents assessed the quality of inpatient staff services as very good, while 100% of respondents reported being very satisfied with the services received. Kendall’s Tau analysis demonstrated a statistically significant positive relationship between service quality and patient satisfaction, with a correlation coefficient of 0.381 and a significance value of 0.016 (p < 0.05).
