This study aims to analyze the relationship between nurse caring and patient satisfaction levels in the general surgery ward of the Regional General Hospital Puruk Cahu.

Data were collected using questionnaires on nurse caring and patient satisfaction and analyzed with correlation tests. The majority of respondents (63.3%) rated nurse caring as very high, and 53.3% expressed feeling very satisfied with the care provided. However, the correlation test results indicated no significant relationship between nurse caring and patient satisfaction (p-value = 0.407).
