Method: An institution based Concurrent triangulation design was conducted with data collection period from March 20,2023 to April 27, 2023. Participants were selected for the quantitative component using a systematic random sampling procedure, and the principal investigator performed an in-depth interview with patients who had been purposefully chosen till saturation level for the qualitative part. Epi Data version 4.6 was used to enter the quantitative data, and SPSS version 25 was utilized to analyze it whereas descriptive and inferential statistics were then employed for analysis. Binary logistic regression was used to assess the association among dependent and independent variables in the quantitative data, while qualitative component was triangulated with quantitative part after it has been thematically analyzed. Result: The study included 602 admitted patients in total. Of those, 50% of participants had good perception of nursing care. Good perceptions of Patients' on nursing care were significantly associated with previous hospitalization history (AOR = 0.42; 95% CI: 0.29- 0.63), admission to medical wards (AOR = 0.43; 95% CI: 0.27- 0.69), and staying less than seven days in a hospital (AOR = 1.50; 95% CI: 1.03- 2.20).
