<![CDATA[Nursing care in the pediatric ward is measured based on parental satisfaction. Parental satisfaction is achieved when the child's needs for nursing care are met during hospitalization. If performance falls below expectations, customers will be dissatisfied, but if performance exceeds expectations, customers will feel satisfied or happy.
