Journal Title: Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences (MJMS) - Year 2012, Vol 5, Issue 2

Abstract

Our survey conducted in 2011 aimed to assess the socio-economic correlates of primary health care personnel satisfaction in Kosovo, the newest country in Europe which is undergoing a difficult socioeconomic transition. In a sample of 142 primary health care professionals in Gjilan region, a significantly lower satisfaction level was reported among nurses compared with physicians. Overall, satisfaction level was positively related to work experience and work conditions.
