Summary

The attitude of the health personnel before, during and after the examination and the positive examination experience of the person have a significant impact on ensuring the continuity of the subsequent examination and increasing the quality of the service provided. The use of different clothes in the patient during the examination will ensure that the patient\'s physical privacy is ensured from the moment of application, during diagnosis and treatment, and that the examination experience will be positively affected by preventing the use of additional covers to protect the privacy of all patients during examination and intervention. This will contribute to the maintenance of health by eliminating the intense stress and embarrassment experienced by patients during the examination and ensuring that they regularly attend health checks. In addition, meeting the privacy expectations of the patients will ensure that they are satisfied with the health service they receive, thus increasing the quality of the health service provided.
