Awareness and perceptions of a hospital's closed-circuit TV channels.
Year: 1997
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: Closed-circuit television (CCTV) programs are used in many hospitals for patient education and entertainment. However, few studies have addressed how patients perceive CCTV programs and whether the educational and entertainment objectives have been satisfied. We studied these questions by surveying patients from a major suburban teaching hospital. We found that when care providers recommended viewing, patients were more likely to watch and to perceive the programs as valuable.
