Studies among patients, nurses, and doctors in Dutch hospitals reveal the need for health education. Patients are dissatisfied with the information received and feel that nurses and doctors fail to meet their expectations regarding health education. More attention needs to be given to older, alienated, and low socioeconomic-status patients. The exclusive use of health-education media (like booklets and videotapes) is limited. It is recommended that hospitals and nursing departments pay greater attention to the in-service training of personnel, appoint specialized health educators, and organize efforts at ward level to create a positive climate for educating patients about various diseases. The policy of the Dutch government and the activities of private organizations (eg, patient movements, radio and TV broadcasts) support the development of patient education in Dutch hospitals.
对荷兰医院的患者、护士和医生进行的研究表明有必要开展健康教育。患者对所获得的信息不满意，认为护士和医生在健康教育方面未达到他们的期望。需要更多地关注老年患者、疏离型患者和社会经济地位较低的患者。单纯使用健康教育媒体（如小册子和录像带）存在局限性。建议医院和护理部门更加重视人员的在职培训，任命专业的健康教育工作者，并在病房层面组织开展工作，营造积极的氛围，就各种疾病对患者进行教育。荷兰政府的政策以及私人组织的活动（如患者运动、广播和电视节目）支持荷兰医院开展患者教育。
