Abstract
Purpose : This study was conducted to verify the effect of nurses’ perceptions on the nursing work environment in hospitals dedicated to infectious diseases on the patient safety management activities and the nursing performance and to provide basic data for improving the nursing work environment in such hospitals.
 Methods : This study examined 161 nurses who have experienced to take care of patients for more than six months in the hospitals dedicated to infectious diseases. It analyzed the data collected by using the Pearson’s correlation coefficient and a hierarchical multiple regression.
 Results : Their perceptions on the nursing work environment have positive correlations with the patient safety management activities(r＝.49, p＜.001), and the nursing performance(r＝.48, p＜.001). The patient safety management activities also have positive correlation with the nursing performance(r＝.59, p＜.001).
 Conclusion : This study found that nurse’ perceptions on the nursing work environment hospitals dedicated to infectious diseases are the factor influencing both the patient safety management activities and the nursing performance, suggesting that administrative and institutional efforts for improving the nursing work environment are required to enhance more effective patient safety management activities and nursing performance than those in the COVID-19.
