Introduction: The safety culture of the patient is a contributing factor for the maintenance of the user’s well-being in the health system because, through it, an organized systematization and quality of patient care are obtained, preventing possible intercurrences that can cause damages. Objective: To analyze the Patient Safety Culture (PSC) from the perspective of health professionals at the Reference Hospital of the Upper Juruá River, in the Brazilian Western Amazon. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study developed in a medium-sized public hospital in a municipality in Western Amazonia. The Survey for Patient Safety Culture survey of the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality was applied to 280 professionals from December 2016 to February 2017. Descriptive analysis of the data and the internal consistency of the instrument were performed. Results: The results indicate the best evaluations in the dimensions of Teamwork in the scopes of the units (60%) and Organizational learning (60%). The aspects with the worst results were the dimensions of non-punitive responses to errors (18%) and frequency of events reported (32%). The internal reliability (Cronbach’s Alpha) analysis of the dimensions ranged from 0.35 to 0.90. Conclusion: The "culture of fear" seems to predominate in this hospital, however, the study showed that there is scope for improvement in all dimensions of CSP. The values of Cronbach’s Alpha presented similarity to the results obtained by the validation process.

Purpose This study compares responses of physicians and nurses to patient safety culture assessment in the Security Forces Hospital Program Makkah, Saudi Arabia, using the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) survey tool and its referenced benchmarking tool. The purpose of this paper is to measure patient safety culture to improve its perception, reaction, and implementation, leading to improvement in care delivery. Design/methodology/approach This study uses convenience sampling, delivering paper copies. The completed surveys were collected by a designated hospital contact person in QPSD. The total population surveyed was 623: 336 nurses, 174 physicians, 9 pharmacists, and 104 technicians. Findings Composite-level results compared to AHRQ database hospitals show values below minimum positive in “Staffing” and “Non-Punitive response to error” to have decreased values in nursing answers than physician ones. The average percentage positive concerning “staffing” items is below the average percentage positive of database hospitals; in nursing, it decreases more; it shows a low positive response regarding enough staff, work hours, and crisis mode; the last item shows a more negative response. The average percentage positive concerning “No punitive Response to Error” is below average positive of database hospitals; in nursing, it decreases more, with a low positive response concerning feeling responsible for mistakes. Originality/value The approach explained in this paper aims to measure patient safety culture, which can be improved through mentioned recommendations.

ObjectivesMedical school education plays an important role in promoting patient safety. In this study, we assess medical students’ perceptions of patient safety culture, identify their educational needs and provide evidence on the most important content relating to patient safety for the medical school curriculum.MethodThis cross-sectional study was conducted in four medical universities in Heilongjiang province. Medical students in the first through five years completed an anonymous questionnaire—the Attitudes toward Patient Safety Questionnaire III. We analysed the differences in responses across the four universities and their cohorts.ResultsThe overall perceptions of patient safety culture across the four medical universities were positive. The highest positive response rate was for ‘I have a good understanding of patient safety issues as a result of my undergraduate medical training’ (range: 58.4%–99.8%), whereas the lowest positive response rate was for ‘medical errors are a sign of incompetence’ (14.7%–47.9%). Respondents in the earlier years of school tended to have more positive responses for items concerning working hours and team work; however, fourth and fifth year students had more positive responses for error inevitability. Items with the lowest positive response rates across the cohorts included items related to ‘professional incompetence as a cause of error’ and ‘disclosure responsibility’.ConclusionsWhile students generally had positive views of patient safety culture, none of them had been exposed to any formal curriculum content on patient safety. Policymakers should focus more on how educational needs vary across schools and cohorts in order to establish appropriate curricula.

ABSTRACT Objective: to assess patient safety culture in a university hospital. Method: cross-sectional study with data collection through the Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture applied in electronic device. A total of 381 employees were interviewed, corresponding to 46% of the sum of eligible professionals. Data were analyzed descriptively. the Cronbach’s alpha was used to calculate the frequency and reliability. Results: most were women (73%) from the nursing area (50%) and with direct contact with patients (82%). The composites related to “teamwork within units” (58%, α=0.68), “organizational learning - continuous improvement” (58%, α=0.63), “supervisor/manager expectations and actions promoting patient safety” (56%, α=0.73) had higher positive responses. Nine composites had low positive responses, with emphasis on “nonpunitive response to error” (18%, α=0.40). Only the item “in this unit, people treat each other with respect” had positive response above 70%. The patient safety assessment in the work unit was positive for 36% of employees, however only 22% reported events in past year. Conclusion: the findings revealed weaknesses in the safety culture at the hospital, with emphasis on culpability.

Budaya keselamatan merupakan kunci untuk mendukung tercapainya peningkatan keselamatan dan kesehatan kerja dalam organisasi. Upaya membangun budaya keselamatan merupakan langkah pertama dalam mencapai keselamatan pasien. Terdapat beberapa faktor yang berkontribusi dalam perkembangan budaya keselamatan yaitu; sikap baik individu maupun organisasi, kepemimpinan, kerja tim, komunikasi dan beban kerja. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui faktor determinan yang berhubungan dengan terciptanya budaya keselamatan pasien di RS Pemerintah Kabupaten Kuningan. Teknik pengambilan sampel yang digunakan incidental sampling 88 orang perawat pelaksana. Rancangan penelitian menggunakan survey analitik dengan pendekatan cross sectional, uji hipotesis digunakan Chi Square dan regresi logistik ganda. Hasil penelitian menunjukan terdapat pengaruh yang signifikan antara persepsi terhadap manajemen (p 0.0005, odd rasio 21.3), dukungan tim kerja (p 0.0005, odd rasio 13.34), stress kerja (p 0.006, odd rasio 3.94), kepuasan kerja (nilai p 0. 002) dengan budaya keselamatan pasien. Tidak terdapat pengaruh yang signifikan kondisi kerja dengan budaya keselamatan pasien dengan nilai p 0.507. Berdasarkan analisis multuvariat diperoleh persepsi terhadap manajemen menjadi factor determinan dengan nilai p 0.000 < α 0.05. Simpulan; unsur pimpinan memiliki pengaruh yang signifikan dalam menciptakan budaya keselamatan pasien. Pimpinan memiliki kewenangan dalam menerapkan system yang berlaku dalam organisasi, oleh karena itu gaya kepemimpinan, teknik komunikasi serta kemampuan manajerial merupakan suatu hal yang sangat perlu diperhatikan dalam menciptakan atmosfer kerja yang kondusif sebagai upaya terciptanya budaya keselamatan pasien. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian bahwa model kepemimpinan transformasional merupakan model yang sesuai diterapkan untuk meningkatkan budaya keselamatan pasien, pelatihan keterampilan komunikasi efektif serta pengembangan model pendidikan antar profesi sebagai upaya peningkatan kemampuan kolaborasi.Kata kunci:Budaya keselamatan pasien, stress kerja, kepuasan kerja.Determinant factors that are Influencing Patient Safety Culture in a Government-owned Hospitals in Kuningan Regency AbstractSafety culture is a key to support the achievement of occupational health and safety in an organization. An effort to build safety culture is the first step in ensuring patient safety. There are some factors that contribute in the development of safety culture, namely, individual and organizational attitude, leadership, team work, communication, and work load. This study aimed to identify the determinant factors that are related to achievement of patient safety culture in a government-owned hospital in Kuningan Regency. Eighty eight samples of nurses were recruited using incidental sampling technique. The research design was using cross sectional study, the hypothesis testing were using Chi Square and multiple logistic regression. The results showed that there were significant influenced between perception towards management (p= 0.0005, odd rasio 21.3), team work support (p= 0.0005, odd rasio 13.34), work-related stress (p= 0.006, odd rasio 3.94), work satisfaction (p= 0. 002) with patient safety culture. There was not significant influenced between work condition and patient safety (p= 0.507). The multivariate analysis showed that perception towards management was the determinant factor for patient safety culture (p 0.000 < α 0.05). In conclusion, leaders have significant influence in creating patient safety culture. Leaders have authority to implement systems in the organization. Therefore, leadership style, communication technique, and managerial ability are important in order to create a conducive atmosphere for developing patient safety culture. As recommendation, transformational leadership is a model that is appropriate to be applied in order to increase patient safety culture, trainings of effective communication and inter-professional education model are also needed to increase the collaboration skills among health professionals.Keywords:Patient safety culture, work-related stress, work satisfaction.

O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a percepção de trabalhadores de enfermagem de um hospital de ensino acerca da cultura de segurança do paciente frente à gestão hospitalar. Trata-se de uma pesquisa quantitativa desenvolvida em um hospital de 900 leitos. A amostra foi composta por 301 profissionais de enfermagem. O instrumento de coleta foi o questionário da Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, intitulado Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture, traduzido para o Português e adaptado da versão original em inglês. A análise deu-se por meio de estatísticas descritivas e testes específicos. Os resultados referentes à dimensão “Apoio da gestão hospitalar para segurança do paciente” evidenciaram que 53,6% dos participantes discordavam que a administração propiciava um clima de trabalho favorável à segurança do paciente, 46% discordavam que a segurança do paciente fosse uma prioridade da administração e 58,3% concordavam que a administração apenas se interessava pela segurança após a ocorrência de eventos adversos. Tais resultados demonstram a necessidade de envolvimento maior da gestão hospitalar para com a segurança dos pacientes, favorecendo o amadurecimento da cultura de segurança. Ainda, a relação entre a enfermagem e a gestão hospitalar deve ser fortalecida, baseando-se em relações mais próximas e lineares. Conclui-se que não é apenas uma parte da organização que é responsável pela cultura de segurança, há, portanto, a necessidade de envolver a gestão e todos os trabalhadores na criação, implementação e fortalecimento dos sentimentos, valores, comportamentos, atitudes e ações que irão fomentar essa cultura. Palavras-chave: Administração hospitalar. Segurança do paciente. Enfermagem.

The transfer of a cardiac surgery patient from the operating room (OR) to the intensive care unit (ICU) is both a challenging process and a critical period for outcomes. Information transferred between these two teams—known as the ‘handoff’—has been a focus of efforts to improve patient safety. At our institution, staff have poor perceptions of handoff safety, as measured by low positive response rates to questions found in the Agency for Health Care Research and Quality (AHRQ) Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture (HSOPS). In this quality improvement project, we developed a novel handoff protocol after cardiac surgery where we invited the ICU nurse and intensivist into the OR to receive a face-to-face handoff from the circulating nurse, observe the final 30 min of the case, and participate in the end-of-case debrief discussions. Our aim was to increase the positive response rates to handoff safety questions to meet or surpass the reported AHRQ national averages. We used plan, do, study, act cycles over the course of 123 surgical cases to test how our handoff protocol was leading to changes in perceptions of safety. After a 10-month period, we achieved our aim for four out of the five HSOPS questions assessing safety of handoff. Our results suggest that having an ICU team ‘run in parallel’ with the cardiac surgical team positively impacts safety culture.

ObjectivesThis study aimed to investigate staff’s perceptions of patient safety culture (PSC) in two Danish hospitals before and after an in situ simulation intervention.DesignA repeated cross-sectional intervention study.SettingTwo Danish hospitals. Hospital 1 performs emergency functions, whereas hospital 2 performs elective functions.ParticipantsA total of 967 healthcare professionals were invited to participate in this study. 516 were employed in hospital 1 and 451 in hospital 2. Of these, 39 were trained as simulation instructors.InterventionA 4-day simulation instructor course was applied. Emphasis was put on team training, communication and leadership. After the course, instructors performed simulation in the hospital environment. No systematic simulation was performed prior to the intervention.Main outcome measuresThe Safety Attitude Questionnaire investigating PSC was applied prior to the intervention and again 4 and 8 weeks after intervention. The proportion of participants with a positive attitude and mean scale scores were measured as main outcomes.ResultsThe response rate varied from 63.6% to 72.0% across surveys and hospitals. Baseline scores were generally lower for hospital 1. The proportion of staff with positive attitudes in hospital 1 improved by ≥5% in five of six safety culture dimensions, whereas only two dimensions improved by ≥5% in hospital 2. The mean scale scores improved significantly in five of six safety culture dimensions in hospital 1, while only one dimension improved significantly in hospital 2.ConclusionsSafety attitude outcomes indicate an improvement in PSC from before to after the in situ simulation intervention period. However, it is possible that an effect is more profound in an acute care hospital versus an elective setting.

PurposeThe aims of this study are to (1) evaluate physicians and nurses' perspectives on patient safety culture amid the COVID-19 pandemic and (2) integrate the emotional exhaustion of physicians and nurses into an evaluation of patient safety culture to provide insights into appropriate implications for medical care.Design/methodology/approachPatient safety culture was assessed with the Chinese version of the Safety Attitudes Questionnaire. Confirmatory factor analysis was conducted to validate the structure of the data (i.e. reliability and validity), and Pearson's correlation analysis was performed to identify relationships between safety-related dimensions.FindingsSafety climate was strongly associated with working conditions and teamwork climate. In addition, working conditions was highly correlated with perceptions of management and job satisfaction, respectively. It is worth noting that the stress and emotional exhaustion of the physicians and nurses during this epidemic were high and needed attention.Practical implicationsFor healthcare managers and practitioners, team-building activities, power of public opinions, IoT-focused service, and Employee Assistance Programs are important implications for inspiring the patient safety-oriented culture during the period of the COVID-19 pandemic.Originality/valueThis paper considers the role of emotional state into patient safety instrument, a much less understood but equally important dimension in the field of patient safety.

Background: Patient satisfaction has always been an area of focus for hospitals, but gained particular importance due to the changes in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement policies. Hospital managers and clinicians interact with patients in different ways and have different perspectives on safety culture, yet little is known about how that impacts patient satisfaction.Objective: To examine how the agreement between clinicians and management perspectives on patient safety culture is related to patient satisfaction by employing cross-sectional design with linear regressions.Methods: Two data sets were used: 2012 Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture and 2012 Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS). The dependent variables were: overall rating of the hospital experience and willingness to recommend a hospital. The independent variables were four safety culture domains: communication openness, feedback, and communication about errors, teamwork within units, and teamwork between units.Results: The results suggest that manager and clinician agreement on high levels of communication openness, feedback and communication about errors, teamwork between units, and teamwork across units were positively and significantly associated with overall patient satisfaction and willingness to recommend. Additionally, more favorable perceptions about patient safety culture by only clinicians yielded similar findings.Conclusions: For policymakers, measuring managers and clinicians’ perceptions on patient safety culture may provide a valuable indicator of patient satisfaction throughout the country. While managers are more likely to have the power to devote resources to patient safety initiatives, they may not adequately judge culture in their unit and should take into account the perspectives of clinicians who have a more frontline perspective.
