The purpose of this study was to explore and describe the relationship of the perception of patient safety culture, knowledge of standard precaution and performance of standard precaution among long-term care hospital nurses. Participants were 134 nurse in long-term hospital. Data were collected with structured questionnaires from January 2 to June 4, 2018. Data were analyzed by SPSS/WIN 21.0 program for descriptive statistics t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe's test and Pearson's correlation coefficient. The perception of patient safety culture were significantly correlated with knowledge of standard precaution(r=.192, p=.027), performance of standard precaution(r=211, p=.014). Therefore, in order to enhance the perception of patient safety culture and performance of standard precaution of long-term care hospital nurses, it would be necessary to enable health-care associated infections by themselves by cultivating standard precaution knowledge through systemic education and by enabling the establishment of affirmative patient safety culture.

This study examined the influence of patient safety culture and safety care activities of general hospital nurses. The participants were 178 nurses working in a hospital in D and G cities. Data were collected from June to July, 2015 through Questionnaires that included the Measure of Patient Safety Culture by Kim et al.(2007), and the Measure of Safety Care Activities by Lee(2009). The collected data were analyzed by descriptive analysis, t-test, One-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and stepwise Multiple regression. A statistically significant positive relationship was observed between the nurses perception of the patient safety culture and their safety care activities (r=.407, p<.001). The findings show the patient safety culture accounted for 43.3% of the variance in the safety care activities for hospital nurses followed by the importance of hospital work environment among nurses to improve the safety care activities. These findings highlight the need to develop effective programs to improve the perception of patient safety culture and safety nursing guideline.

This study conducted a descriptive research to compare the degree of patient safety culture awareness among general hospitals and long-term care hospital nurses. The subjects of this study were 150 nurses who worked for more than 6 months at 2 general hospitals and 4 long-term care hospitals located in 3 cities, the data has collected from October to December 2021. To Measure patient safety culture, the patient safety culture measurement tool developed by Soon Gyo Lee was used. Data were analyzed by 𝑥²-test, ANOVA, and t-test using SPSS 20.0 program. As a result of the study, the variables with high patient safety culture were the nurse's age(F=44.17, p=.000), clinical career(F=62.86, p=.000), and current workplace career(F=26.27, p=.000). Among the subdomains of patient safety culture, leadership(t=2.07, p= .040) and patient safety priorities(t=2.18, p=.031) were found to be higher in long-term care hospital nurses than general hospital nurses. Based on this result, we expected that it can be used as data in developing programs to raise the level of patient safety culture in hospitals and long-term care hospitals.

이 연구는 간호사의 환자안전 인식에 대한 조사이다. 이 조사는 2차, 3차의료기관 886명 간호사를 조사했다. 그것은 미국 AHRQ가 개발한 Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture를 김 등이 번역한 것을 수정하여 사용하였다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 1) 환자안전문화에 관한 인식은 3.46(${\pm}$0.37) 로 보통 이상이었다. 2) 대상자의 일반적 특성에 따른 환자안전문화에 대한 인식의 차이는 2년미만인 간호사와 주 45시간미만 근무자가 환자안전점수가 유의하게 높았다. 3) 환자안전활동수준은 3.79(${\pm}$0.56)이었다. 결론적으로 첫째, 병원간호사의 인력충원, 간호등급 상향조정, 적정근무시간 이 필요하다. 둘째, 자발적으로 보고 할 수 있는 제도가 필요하다.

본 첨단기기의 발전에 따라 의료분야에서도 사람들이 인지하고 있는 것보다 많은 위험요인이 존재한다고 알려지고 있다. 미국의 경우 병원환경의 안전성을 확보하기 위하여 정부와 의료계 모두 부단한 노력을 하고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구는 4개 병원 350명의 의료인을 대상으로 환자안전에 대한 태도와 인식을 구조화된 설문을 통하여 진행하였다. 직종은 의사, 간호사, 약사, 의료기사로 구분하였다. 환자안전 개선을위해 적극적으로 노력하는 여부에 대하여 의사는 보통 또는 그렇지 않다고 39.5%가 응답한 반면, 보통이라고 간호사는 58.6%, 약사는 53.3%, 의료기사는 78.3%로 응답하였다(p=0.029). 환자안전 실수가 긍정적인 변화를 초래한다는 응답에 의사는 '매우 그렇지 않다'고 40.5%, 간호사는 '그렇지 않다'고 45.4%, 약사는 '보통'고 53.8%, 의료기사는 '그렇지 않다'고 54.5%가 응답해서 전반적으로 그렇지 않다고 생각하고 있는 것으로 나타났다(p=0.006). 병원내 환자안전에 대한 병원내 조직 문화를 살펴보고, 의료과오에 대한 논의와 의사소통의 현황을 파악하고, 의료인간의 환자안전에 대한 인식을 고취하여 보다 나은 환자안전 문화를 만들어야 할 것이라 생각된다.

The study includes 377 participants who have worked for more than one year in the hospital. All of hospital with less than 300-beds or more than 300-beds, such as patient safety-medical quality, organizational culture, hospital management activities found a positive correlation among variables. The mediating effect of organizational culture in the relationship between patient safety-medical quality and hospital management activities was shown by the partial mediating effect and high causal effect. Therefore, these study suggest that patient safety-medical quality due to healthcare accreditation adoption has the potential to improve hospital management activities.

This study was a descriptive survey to identify influences of nurses' professional autonomy and empathy on patient safety culture. The participants were 191 nurses working at a general hospital in Seoul. The data were collected using structured questionnaires and analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 24.0 program. Patient safety culture had a significant correlation with nurses' professional autonomy (r=.26, p<.001) and the subscales of empathy, which were perspective-taking (r=.30, p<.001) and empathic concern (r=.27, p<.001). Factors influencing patient safety culture were perspective-taking (${\beta}=.27$, p<.001), professional autonomy (${\beta}=.20$, p=.004), and a total clinical career of over ten years (${\beta}=.17$, p=.012). The results of this study could be the basic data for the development of programs that enhance the professional autonomy and empathy of nurses. In addition, it is necessary to study repeatedly in various groups in the future.

This study is a structural equation modeling study that describes patient safety incident management activities for nursing students with clinical practice experience and uses Ajzen's theory of planned behavior and safety culture climate-safety behavior model as conceptual bases, proposes a hypothetical model of nursing students' patient safety incident management activities based on the literature review, and verifies the appropriateness of the model and hypotheses through the collected data. Data were collected from 251 nursing students with clinical practice experience using a structured questionnaire. The results of this study confirmed that the model is appropriate and that patient safety management attitude, patient safety culture, and safety motivation are predictors of nursing students' patient safety management activities. Therefore, in order to improve patient safety management activities, it is necessary to provide effective patient safety incident management education programs for nursing students so that nursing students can perform correct patient safety management behaviors from the clinical practice site to the clinical practice site after graduation, and it is necessary to explore how to continuously lead such education programs to the practice site.
