Abstract

Purpose: This study was designed to describe the nurses' knowledge and attitude about incidence reporting according to nursing organizational culture and organizational characteristics. Methods: The subjects of this study were 783 clinical nurses who were in A university hospital in Gyeonggi-Do. The data were collected from May, 20, 2009 to June, 2, 2009. The collected data were analyzed through descriptive methods, Pearson correlation coefficient, multiple regression in SPSS win(12.0). Results: Nurses' knowledge and attitude about incidence reporting were positively correlated with innovation oriented culture, relation oriented culture, and culture of patient safety. And among characteristics of nursing organization, communication, decision making, centralization were positively correlated with nurses' knowledge and attitude about incidence reporting. But the most correlated factor with nurses' knowledge and attitude about incidence reporting was culture of patient safety. Conclusions: The findings of this study suggest that to encourage reporting incidence, there must be a organizational approach, such as creating a culture of patient safety, active participating decision making, and communication.
