It is essential that professional counsellors investigate the patients’ perception of health workers’ attitude towards their care and wellbeing. In view of this, this study examined the perception patients hold about health workers’ attitude towards their care and wellbeing with Kwara South LGA as case study. The study also examined the influence of gender, age, and educational qualification on the respondents’ views. A researcher designed instrument tittled “Patients’ Perception of Health Workers’ Attitude Questionnaire (PPHWAQ)’ was used to collect data from six hundred respondents, who were selected through a two-stage sampling procedure. Four research questions were raised while three null hypotheses were formulated and tested using t-test and ANOVA at 0.05 alpha level. The findings of the study showed that patients have a negative perception of health workers’ attitude towards their care and wellbeing. It was also found that there was no significant difference in patients’ perception of health workers’ attitude towards their care and wellbeing on the basis of gender, age and educational qualification. Based on the findings of this study, recommendations were made that hospital management in collaboration with professional counsellors should embark on advocacy drive aimed at creating awareness among health workers about patients’ negative perception of their attitudes toward their care and wellbeing. Health Counsellors should be employed and involved in organisation of seminars and workshops from time to time in order to assist health workers to develop positive behavioural disposition towards patients.Item SELF-CONCEPT OF BULLIES IN SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN ILORIN METROPOLIS, KWARA STATE(Department of Education, University of Maiduguri, Nigeria, 2016-09) Mustapha, Mulikat Ladi Abdulqadir; Bolu-Steve, Foluke Nike; ADEBOYE, Adenike A.Bullying in schools has become an issue of concern across the various segments of the Nigerian society.
