%X Empathy plays an important role in nursing so that the patients are provided with quality care and are satisfied with the services provided. Saudi Arabian patient interactions, including initial exploring, tend not to be formulaically initiated as in other countries. In this current study, the researcher aimed to highlight the critical role of nurse introductions in creating a desirable patient experience in the inpatient centers of Ministry Of Health hospitals in Saudi Arabia. This study was a cross-sectional secondary data analysis using the National Health Links/Presses Ganey surveys for every quint between the period 2021 and 2022. The methodology comprised an in-depth analysis of the Patient Experience Management Program (PXMP) survey that was involved as the uniform survey concluded by the Health Links/PressGaney. During the analysis, however, the results were found to have significant differences as 71.3% of the patients had a very good impression of their overall patient experience. This was specifically designed to address specific issues such as personal characteristics. The results of this study contribute to the understanding of what drives the nurses-patient interactions and forge the need for enhancing the way nurses are introduced to their patients to increase the average level of satisfaction of patients in the Ministry Of Health hospitals in Saudi Arabia. This study recommends that Saudi nurses should be trained to establish rapport in their interactions with patients as this promotes patient-centeredness and subsequently patients' experiences and care outcomes.
