Abstract

MENDEZ-WONG, Adriana; REYES-RUIZ, Edith  and  MELLADO-SILLER, Jesús Francisco. Marketing and its applicability in nurses in Saltillo, Mexico. Horiz. sanitario [online]. 2018, vol.17, n.1, pp.51-58. ISSN 2007-7459.  https://doi.org/10.19136/hs.a17n1.1880.

Objective:

To establish the degree of knowledge of the nurses (s) of Saltillo on health marketing and determine the levels of applicability in their professional practice.

Materials and methods:

It is an exploratory, quantitative cross-sectional study, applying an instrument to 100 nurses. An instrument used by Priego- Álvarez is used in a similar study in Tabasco, Mexico. A comparative analysis was performed in percentages of the answers with the IBM SPSS program and Pearson's Chi-square analysis.

Results:

An important percentage of the interviewed nurses does know or apply marketing concepts in the practice of their profession.

Conclusions:

The application of marketing in the professional practice of nursing tends to be limited because the majority is considered to be a caregiver.
