    • 1.4     Research Objectives
      The general objective of this study is to describe patient perception and satisfaction with healthcare professionals at primary health care facilities in Enugu. The specific objectives are:
      To describe and compare the perceived quality of care at the various levels of care in Enugu
      To determine the level of client satisfaction with health care professionals in the health facilities
      To identify the predictors of perception of quality of care and client satisfaction in the health facilities
      1.5     Research Questions
      The following research questions guided the study;
      What is the perceived quality of care at the various levels of care in Enugu?
      What is the level of client satisfaction with health care professionals in the health facilities?
      What are the predictors of perception of quality of care and client satisfaction in the health facilities?
      1.6     Limitation to Study
      The major limitations of the study were
      Interviews and FGDs were held on the health facility premises. This might cause clients to have the tendency to give higher ratings for fear of victimization even though they were assured of confidentiality.
      Interviewing caretakers of patients less than 15 years of age rather than the patients themselves might not give the true picture since their views may be different from that of the patients themselves.
      Only one health centre and one clinic were sampled due to resource constraints.
