The sample used was 30 respondents who were chosen randomly through accidental sampling. The instruments for this research were a stopwatch to measure response time, as well as a patient satisfaction questionnaire consisting of 25 statements regarding the staff's service while in the ER at RSU Al-Ittihad Blitar.Results: The results of this study used the Spearman's rho statistical test, with a value of ρ=0.000 < α 0.005, so H0 was rejected, and H1 was accepted, meaning there was a significant relationship between nurse response time and patient satisfaction in the ER at RSU Al-Ittihad Blitar. The correlation coefficient was found to be -0.694, meaning that the shorter the response time given, the greater the patient satisfaction.
