    • Main Results:

    • Client characteristics generally did not predict overall satisfaction, except for marital status (unmarried vs. married women).
    • Women awake during the procedure reported lower satisfaction.
    • Information provided on self-care was the strongest positive predictor of overall satisfaction.

    Conclusions:

    • Improving the quality and delivery of self-care information is essential for enhancing client satisfaction in abortion care.
    • Training healthcare providers and staff on information provision is recommended.
    • Targeted quality improvement efforts should focus on communication and patient education.
