Journal Title: Journal of International Health Sciences and Management - Year 2024, Vol 10, Issue 20
Abstract
In the provision of health services, preventive, curative, rehabilitative and health promotion services are provided within the scope of primary, secondary and tertiary treatment services in the public and private sectors. It is thought that the health institutions that individuals who want to receive health services apply to vary due to issues such as their social security, economic situation, time of receiving the service, desire to be protected from diseases, desire to heal from the disease, and distance to reach the institution. This study was conducted to determine which institution students studying in the field of health prefer when receiving health services and for what reasons, and to determine what influences the preferences of individuals who will work in this sector in the future. Within the scope of the research, a survey consisting of 21 questions included in the specialization thesis published by Aksoy (2018) was applied to associate degree students studying at the health services vocational school of a private university in Istanbul. The survey was shared via Google forms and filled out by 410 students. Classification scale was used within the framework of quantitative research method and the findings were organized using descriptive analysis and Chi Square analysis in SPSS 25 program. As a result of the analysis, it was determined that the most preferred institution was ‘State Hospital (56.3%)’, the reason for preference was ‘Because It is Close/Easy to Access (39.2%)’, the institution they would not prefer was ‘Family Health Center (29%)’ and the reason was ‘Not being able to have every analysis done (24%)’. Within the scope of the findings, it is of great importance to conduct studies on making other health institutions attractive in order to alleviate the high demand for state hospitals.
