Clients' perceptions of nursing care services at selected public health facilities in Namibia: A qualitative study.
Article in Health SA = SA Gesondheid, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Satisfaction is a subjective phenomenon that is influenced by various contextual factors. In the healthcare sector, establishing a therapeutic relationship with patients is essential for facilitating active, mutual engagement and fostering collaboration. However, patient satisfaction with nursing care services in Namibia remains under-researched. Aim: The study explored and described clients' perceptions of nursing care services at selected public health facilities in Namibia. Setting: The study was conducted at two public health facilities in Namibia. Methods: An exploratory, descriptive qualitative design was utilised to recruit 13 clients for individual interviews through purposive sampling. Data were collected in 2022 using an interview guide and analysed using Braun and Clarke's six-step thematic analysis. Results: Two key themes emerged: (1) nurse-client communication dynamics, encompassing clients' views on client satisfaction, and (2) innovative client suggestions for enhancing client satisfaction, detailing measures to address identified challenges. Conclusion: The study's findings underscore the need to implement targeted training initiatives for nurses and to adopt client-centred care models. Future research should explore client satisfaction through larger cross-sectional or longitudinal studies to inform strategies to enhance client satisfaction with nursing care. Contribution: The study provides valuable insights into client satisfaction and has implications for nursing practice in Namibia.
