Investigating Between Patient Safety Culture, Organizational Climate, and A Positive Workplace on Reporting of Patient Safety Incidents in Hospital

Many patient safety incidents (PSIs) begin the hospital's safety system establishment, which is oriented toward patient safety. The importance of PSI reporting is of particular concern to WHO. Therefore, comprehensive guidance exists on designing, implementing, and applying good PSI reporting. This research is a non-experimental design using SEM analysis techniques, and it is processed using the SMARTPLSv3 application. This study aims to determine the effect of patient safety culture (X1), organizational climate (X2), and a positive environment (X3) on motivation to report PSI (Y1). The research sample was the X Semarang Hospital staff, with 200 respondents. The results showed that the Patient Safety Rate at X Semarang Hospital was in a suitable category of 54%, even though the number of PSI reported was in the low category. The SEM analysis result indicated that the construct of the X1 and X2 variables after modification was valid and reliable. Moreover, there was a positive and significant effect of X1 and X2 on Y1 with an effect size of 0.042 (small) and 0.490 (large). However, X2 did not have a significant influence on Y1. The hierarchy culture implemented in X Hospital didn't affect motivation for the reporting of patient safety incidents (PSI). It even tends to have an indirect negative influence through a supportive environment variable.

The Effect of Patient Safety Culture on the Quality of Nurses’ Performance

Patient safety culture should be applied by all nurses in healthcare facilities. Yet, most of the time, nurses are not aware of its importance, resulting in patients’ poor perception of the nurses’ performance. This study identified the effect of patient safety culture on nurses’ performance at Bakti Mulia General Hospital. This was a correlation-descriptive study, which selected all nurses as many as 28 at Bakti Mulia General Hospital by using simple random sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using univariate and bivariate analysis with Pearson Correlation test. The majority of the respondents had poor patient safety culture (46%), and some had high patient safety culture (54%). The majority of the respondents showed had poor performance (68%), and some others had high performance (32%). There was a significant effect on patient safety culture on nurses' performance at Bakti Mulia General Hospital.

Commentary: The effect of patient safety culture on nurses’ near-miss reporting intention: the moderating role of perceived severity of near misses

The effect of patient safety culture on nurses' near-miss reporting intention: the moderating role of perceived severity of near misses.

Reporting near misses is a practical approach to improve the confounding challenge of patient safety. Evidence suggests that patient safety culture and the characteristics of errors might have important impacts on reporting. No studies, however, have examined the relationships among patient safety culture, perceived severity of near misses and near-miss reporting. To explore the relationship between patient safety culture and nurses' near-miss reporting intention, and examine the potential moderating effect the perceived severity of near misses might have on this relationship. Using a cross-sectional survey, data were collected with three validated survey instruments completed by 920 Registered Nurses in eight tertiary hospitals in China. Multiple regression analysis tested relationships among the variables. Nurses reported a moderate-high level of near-miss reporting intention. Patient safety culture was positively associated with nurses' near-miss reporting intention. Perceived severity of near misses did not significantly moderate the relationship between patient safety culture and reporting intention. Nurses generally showed a positive willingness to report near misses. A specific near-miss management and education system within a learning, supportive working environment are key components to improve reporting intention among nurses which could significantly improve patient safety.

The relationship between the perception of open disclosure of patient safety incidents, perception of patient safety culture, and ethical awareness in nurses

BackgroundScientific advances have resulted in more complex medical systems, which in turn have led to an increase in the number of patient safety incidents (PSIs). In this environment, the importance of honest disclosure of PSIs is rising, which highlight the need to settle a reliable system. This study aimed to investigate the effects of patient safety culture and ethical awareness on open disclosure of PSIs.MethodsData were collected from 389 nurses using self-reported perceptions of open disclosure of PSIs, perceptions of patient safety culture, and ethical awareness.ResultsPerception of open disclosure of PSIs was significantly correlated with ethical awareness and perception of patient safety culture. Ethical awareness had the greatest impact on perception of PSIs, and two components of the perception of patient safety culture, namely overall knowledge about patient safety and staffing, were found to have significant effects.ConclusionsTo enhance nurses’ perception of open disclosure of PSIs, educational curriculum and programs that teach and practice fundamental ethical values are needed. Furthermore, it also calls for effort on the part of healthcare institutions and the government, as well as people’s trust, to implement a legal safety net and foster patient safety culture to promote honest disclosure of PSIs to patients.

Creating a culture of patient safety and developing a skilled workforce are major challenges for health managers. However, there is limited information to guide managers as to how patient safety culture can be improved. The purpose of this paper is to explore the concept of reflexivity and develop a model for magnifying the effect of patient safety culture and demonstrating a link to improved perceptions of quality of care. This research employed a correlational case study design with empirical hypothesis testing of quantitative scores derived from validated survey items. Staff perceptions of patient safety, reflexivity and quality of patient care were obtained via a survey in 2015 and analysed using inferential statistics. The final sample included 227 health service staff from clinical and non-clinical designations working in a large Australian tertiary hospital and health service delivering acute and sub-acute health care. Both patient safety culture and reflexivity are positively correlated with perceived quality of patient care at the p<0.01 level. The moderating role of reflexivity on the relationship between patient safety culture and quality of care outcomes was significant and positive at the p<0.005 level. Improving reflexivity in a health workforce positively moderates the effect of patient safety culture on perceptions of patient quality of care. The role of reflexivity therefore has implications for future pre-professional curriculum content and post-graduate licencing and registration requirements. Much has been published on reflection. This paper considers the role of reflexivity, a much less understood but equally important construct in the field of patient safety.

Effects of Patient Safety Culture on Patient Satisfaction With Radiological Services in Nigerian Radiodiagnostic Practice.

Introduction:Patient safety culture is believed to be the first step toward improvement in quality of health-care delivery which will impact patient satisfaction.Objective:To assess the effect of patient safety culture on patient satisfaction in radiodiagnostic practice.Method:Two validated questionnaires via Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture by Agency of Health Research and Quality and patient satisfaction questionnaire by Hays were administered to radiodiagnostic staff and patients who came for diagnostic care, respectively. These questionnaires were based on 5-point Likert scale. Questionnaires on patient safety culture and patient satisfaction were administered to 80 radiology health workers and 376 patients of radiology, respectively. Simple random sampling was used to enlist the participants for patient satisfaction while a population study was carried out to enlist patient safety culture participants. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 17.Results:Response rate for patient safety culture questionnaires was 94.6%, while that of patient satisfaction was 62.8%. Among the survey items of patient safety, teamwork has the highest positive response of 76.5%, while staffing has the least, 30%. Overall patient safety culture was 53.7%. The survey item with highest positive response in patient satisfaction survey was patient-provider relationship (80%), while service cost-effectiveness has the least of 59%. Overall patient satisfaction with radiological services was 72.6%. There is no correlation between patient safety culture and patient satisfaction.Conclusion:Even though there is an excellent level of patient satisfaction in this study, it is not related to the practice of patient safety culture in radiodiagnostic unit.
