The Relationship between Patient Safety Culture and The Level of Knowledge of Health Personnel with Compliance in Patient Identification Implementation in Hospital

Abstract

The basic principle of health care in health institutions that continues to require quality improvement is patient safety. This study aims to analyze the relationship between patient safety culture and the level of knowledge of health workers with compliance with patient identification. This research is quantitative analytical with an observational approach. Data was collected on 70 respondents by observing patient identification compliance, patient safety culture questionnaires, and the level of knowledge of health workers regarding patient identification. Data were analyzed using correlation coefficient analysis. The results of the analysis show that there is a significant relationship between patient safety culture and level of knowledge and compliance with patient identification (p = 0.000 < 0.05). The findings of this study provide insight into the importance of patient safety culture and the level of knowledge of health workers in increasing their compliance in carrying out patient identification, especially in hospitals. This study suggests that management and related health workers should actively participate in implementing patient safety programs, especially those involved in patient identification, to achieve optimal patient safety outcomes.
