Abstract
Objective: To investigate the status quo of nursing practice environment, nurses’ safety attitude, and occupational well-being, as well as to explore the relationship among the three, so as to provide reference for formulating and implementing corresponding measures. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted from October 2021 to December 2021. A total of 1,939 nurses from five tertiary hospitals in a city were surveyed using the Nurses’ Practice Environment Assessment Scale, Safety Attitudes Questionnaire, and Medical Workers’ Occupational Wellbeing Scale. The data were analyzed using SPSS 22.0. Results: The total score of nurses’ practice environment was 68.81 ± 27.79 points, which is at a relatively general level; the total score of nurses’ safety attitude was 111.28 ± 14.38 points, which is at a moderate level; and the total score of occupational well-being was 62.43 ± 28.17 points, which is relatively high. There was a significant positive correlation between nurses’ practice environment and their safety attitudes and occupational well-being (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Nurses are the main human resources in hospitals, and their practice environment is closely related to patient safety and their work enthusiasm. An unhealthy practice environment not only affects the quality of care, which leads to patient safety issues, but also their job satisfaction. Nurse managers are encouraged to implement targeted interventions in advance to improve nurses’ practice environment, strengthen safety attitudes, and enhance the professional wellbeing of nurses.
