Results: Of the 54 undergraduate nursing courses offered in the State of Paraná, nine teach specific subjects on the topic “patient safety”, three in public institutions and six in private institutions. Conclusion: Curricular weaknesses were observed in the approach to this topic, with a noticeable need to introduce concepts about patient safety into the curricular guidelines, integrating theory into professional practice.
