Abstract

The invisible motive of physicians to see patients recover quickly raises disappointment in the patient and the patient's family. The need to cure patient is called need for nurturance. In the need for nurturance, there are affectionate and tenderness as trait, also sympathetic, protective, supporting, and humanitarian as attitude of need for nurturance. Therefore, researchers want to see how the patient's feelings about the needs of physician to nurture the patients, from the side of trait and attitude of support the needs of the physician. Descriptive research was conducted on 100 patients in each inpatient room at the Haji Adam Malik Hospital Medan. The data were obtained by interview using the need for nurturance questionnaire developed from Murray's personality theory, then analyzed descriptively. Results concluded that patients feel the physician has a need to nurture the patient. However, physicians are less able to show the nature of affection, humanitarian and sympathetic attitudes, so that patients feel physicians are less able to provide the best health services to patients. It is recommended that physicians strengthen the need for nurturances as a motive in providing the best health care to patients by showing the nature of affection, humanitarian attitude and sympathetic.
