Patient Safety Attitudes of Nurses Working in Surgical Clinics: A Cross-Sectional Study
Öz
Aim: This study conducted to investigate the attitudes of nurses working in surgical clinics towards patient safety.
Materials and Methods: The descriptive and cross-sectional study sample consisted of 100 nurses working at the surgical clinics of a hospital in the Marmara region of Turkey. The data were collected between March 2020 and June 2020 by using a Nurse Identification Form and The Safety Attitudes Questionnaire. Median, percentage distribution, independent t-test and analysis of variance (ANOVA) test were used for statistical evaluation. A written permission was obtained from the Scientific Ethics Board where the study was conducted for the investigation to be carried out.
Results: The mean total attitude score of the nurses included in the study was found 155.88±20.77. No statistically significant difference was found to exist between the mean total scores of the Safety Attitudes Questionnaire, and the variables of the nurses’ gender, education level or place of work (p > 0.05). A statistically significant difference was found between the marital status of nurses, working position and the mean total score of the of the Safety Attitudes Questionnaire.
Conclusion: It was concluded from this study that nurses working in surgical units had a positive attitude toward patient safety. Nursing leaders should therefore endeavor to maintain nurses’ work motivation and improving working conditions to maintain patient safety.
