- Abstract
This study evaluates the perception of caregivers of the quality of neuropediatric physiotherapy services offered at specialized rehabilitation centers (SRC) in Brazil. This is a cross-sectional, quantitative, evaluative study whose target population was caregivers of children in rehabilitation. The AQSF-Neuroped instrument was used to evaluate the quality of three SRC based on the perception of 320 caregivers. The one-proportion hypothesis test was used based on each AQSF-Neuroped item and dimension. The Weight of Evidence and Latent Class Analysis models were used to evaluate the influence of variables on the perception of quality. A mean overall quality score of 133±14 points indicated a positive perception of quality; however, there were aspects related to physical structure (Interpersonal Dimension) and access (Organizational Dimension II) that needed to be improved (p-values<0.05) to better meet the expectations of caregivers. By group formation, the LCA enabled identification of the caregivers' characteristics that determined either a positive or negative perspective of the quality. SRC B was best evaluated among all SRC (IV<0.10). Finally, managers are provided with results to support improvements in services.
