Background:
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a non-progressive neurological disorder characterized by impairments in movement, posture, and motor function caused by damage to the developing brain. Children with cerebral palsy often require long-term rehabilitation, including physiotherapy, to improve functional abilities and quality of life. Caregivers play a crucial role in the rehabilitation process, as they are responsible for assisting children with daily activities and therapy programs. Therefore, understanding caregiver satisfaction with physiotherapy services is important for improving rehabilitation outcomes and ensuring effective service delivery.

Aim:
The aim of this study was to evaluate the satisfaction level of caregivers regarding physiotherapy treatment provided to children with cerebral palsy.

Methodology:
A survey-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 36 caregivers of children with cerebral palsy who were regularly attending physiotherapy sessions. Participants were selected using convenient sampling. Caregiver satisfaction was assessed using the Caregiver Satisfaction Questionnaire for Cerebral Palsy Children (CSQCP), a self-report questionnaire consisting of 29 items divided into six domains, including coordinated care, delivery of information, respectful and supportive care, partnership, provision of information, and treatment response. Each item was scored on a four-point Likert scale, and the total score was converted into percentage satisfaction levels.

Results:
The results revealed that the majority of caregivers demonstrated high satisfaction with physiotherapy services. Approximately 69.44% of caregivers reported satisfaction levels between 80–100%, indicating satisfaction to a very great extent, while 27.77% reported satisfaction between 60–79%. Only 2.77% of caregivers demonstrated satisfaction between 40–59%, and none reported lower satisfaction levels. An unpaired t-test comparing male and female caregivers showed no statistically significant difference in satisfaction levels (p > 0.05). Higher education levels among caregivers were generally associated with higher satisfaction percentages.

Conclusion:
The findings of the present study suggest that caregivers of children with cerebral palsy are highly satisfied with the physiotherapy services provided. Effective communication, supportive care, and active involvement of caregivers in rehabilitation programs may contribute to higher satisfaction levels and improved treatment outcomes.
