description | OBJECTIVE: This survey was a comparative and descriptive study performed to evaluate patient safety culture in nursing services and to determine the affecting factors of two private hospital settings. METHODS: To collect survey data, a 'Questionnaire' developed to identify nurse characteristics and the 'Patient Safety Culture Scale' developed by Turkmen et. al. to evaluate patient safety culture were used. The survey included 151 nurses working in two private hospitals. Frequency, percentage, arithmetic mean, Student t-test, Mann Whitney U, Kruskall Wallis and Chi-Square test were used to evaluate data. RESULTS: As to evaluation of findings for patient safety, 76.2% of the nurses received training on patient safety. The highest score average for scale was 3.04+-0.609 in 'Training'. In comparison of score averages of the nurses for scale and sub-dimensions, there were statistically significant (p<0.05) differences in the overall scores in the groups. There were highly statistically significant (p<0.001) differences in the 'staff behavior' and 'training' when compared the score averages from the scale and its sub-dimensions for receiving patient safety training. CONCLUSION: The patient safety culture in nursing services was better conducted in the hospital A than it was in the Hospital B. This is considered to be associated with the training on patient safety delivered to the nurses. |
