Abstract

The study aims to measure The Quality of Life and Satisfaction Level among the Doctors Working in Rural Areas of India, the challenges faced by them and to understand the determinants of stay on the job. The sample comprised of 40 doctors from rural areas of Maharashtra using convenient sample method. The data was collected using Quality of Life(QoL): BREF (WHO, 1996) and Satisfaction with Life scale (Ed Diner, 1985) and the scores obtained were analyzed using T-test and Pearson product moment correlation and thematic analysis were used for analyzing the qualitative data obtained. It was found that there is a significant association between the satisfaction levels among doctors when compared with various domains of QoL. The satisfaction of life was significantly associated with physical, social and environmental domains. It was also significantly associated while comparing the doctors who went willingly to rural areas as compared to doctors who went unwillingly. The association was seen in the physical and psychological domain of QOL. Hence, the satisfaction level is seen to be associated with QoL. The results obtained from the present study indicated that those who choose rural service have better QoL and are more satisfied. It is, therefore, important to promote motivation among young doctors to choose to serve their country in rural areas.

印度农村地区医生的生活质量和满意度
该研究旨在衡量在印度农村地区工作的医生的生活质量和满意度水平,他们面临的挑战,并了解留在工作岗位上的决定因素。采用方便抽样法,选取马哈拉施特拉邦农村地区的40名医生作为样本。采用生活质量量表(Quality of Life(QoL): BREF (WHO, 1996)和生活满意度量表(Ed Diner, 1985)收集数据,所得得分采用t检验进行分析,所得定性数据采用Pearson积差相关分析和专题分析。研究发现,与生活质量的各个领域相比,医生的满意度水平之间存在显著的相关性。生活满意度与身体、社会和环境领域显著相关。在比较愿意去农村地区的医生和不愿意去农村地区的医生时,这也有显著的联系。这种关联在生活质量的生理和心理领域均可见。因此,满意度水平被视为与生活质量相关。本研究结果显示,选择乡村服务的学生生活质量更好,满意度更高。因此,重要的是要鼓励年轻医生选择到农村地区为国服务。
