The population was all outpatients who checked their blood sugar levels at the Internal Medicine Specialist Clinic of Islamic Hospital Surabaya from January to February 2021. Meanwhile, there were 115 respondents with total random sampling. The independent variable was random blood sugar (RBS) levels, while the dependent variables were dietary habits and physical activity. Data collection used medical records at the Internal Medicine Specialist Clinic of Islamic Hospital Surabaya. Then, data analysis utilized Fisher's Exact Test with a significance of 0.05  Results: Most respondents had regular dietary habits (53%) and normal random blood sugar levels (54%). In addition, they had regular physical activity (80%), with frequency once a week (34.8%), and most types of physical activity were gymnastics (34.8%). The Fisher's Exact Test obtained p=0.000 in analyzing between dietary habits and RBG levels. In addition, p=0.000 in evaluating between physical activity and RBG levels.

Abstract

Patient care in the isolation room differs from other rooms, including strict hygiene, proper personal protective equipment, and minimal patient contact. Furthermore, this study aims to portray patient satisfaction with healthcare services among inpatients in the COVID-19 isolation room. It was a descriptive study using a retrospective descriptive methodology. The population was inpatients in the COVID-19 isolation room at Surabaya Islamic hospital for January-May 2021. In addition, the sample was 128 respondents with a total sampling method. The authors used a questionnaire portraying patient satisfaction with health care services based on reliability, assurance, tangible, empathy, and responsiveness dimensions. The data was processed descriptively in a frequency distribution table. The results showed that respondents were satisfied with the reliability dimension (the ability of doctors and nurses to explain, listen, and speed up handling complaints). In addition, they were satisfied with tangible (room facilities, cleanliness of rooms, cleanliness of beds and bathrooms); empathy (attention of doctors, the ability of nurses to motivate and communicate well); assurance (friendly and polite healthcare services, safe healthcare services, and good healthcare service), and responsiveness (fast and accurate healthcare treatments, diagnostics, and easy healthcare procedures). Thus, inpatients in the COVID-19 Isolation Room at Surabaya Islamic hospital for January-May 2021 were satisfied with healthcare services based on reliability, assurance, tangible, empathy, and responsiveness dimensions. However, the empathy dimension had the lowest score among the five dimensions. So, emotional intelligence training is essential to improve health workers' empathy for patients.
