Purpose: The study was conducted to investigate the correlation between perception of patient safety risk factors, patient safety competency, and safety nursing activities of nurses in hemodialysis units and identify factors affecting patient safety activities. Methods: The participants were 146 nurses from 16 hemodialysis units located in Gyeongsangnam-do. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis using the SPSS, version 24.0. Results: The mean safety nursing activity score was 3.47±0.38. safety nursing activities of the participants were significantly correlated with patient safety competency. The characteristics showing significant differences in safety nursing activities were educational level, hospital type, hospital work experience, number of hemodialysis treatment per day, number of hemodialysis treatment per nurse, educational experience of patient safety, presence of a patient safety incident report registration system, and direct registration of patient safety incident report. The multiple regression analysis revealed that the factors influencing safety nursing activities were patient safety incident report, patient safety competency, and number of daily hemodialysis treatment (<5~7 times/day) per nurse (R2=.34). Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that the safety nursing activities of hemodialysis unit nurses should be intensified. In addition, the registration system of patient safety incident report and nurses' competency on patient safety should be improved, and the number of hemodialysis per nurse should be fewer than 7 times per day.
Purposes : The purpose of this study is to identify factors that have effects on safety activities of hospital personnels by investigating causality between patient safety culture, job stress, safety system and safety activities of faculty and staff member who are working for oriental medicine hospital of university. Methodology : The subjects were 246 employees working in 4 oriental medicine hospitals of university in Daejeon and Chungcheongnam-do. The data were collected from January 16 to January 25, 2017 using a structured questionnaire. For data analysis, descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficient, t-test, ANOVA and Duncan test with SPSS 22.0 were used. Findings : The activity score for patient safety of faculty and staff member, who were experienced at job training program after joining a company and regular training course for qualification or license, was meaningfully higher than that of group who had no job training experience. The result indicated that the higher there is level of safety culture and safety system and the lower there is work stress, the more the activity has positive effect on patient safety. The level score of awareness for safety culture of faculty and staff member in C hospital, which is facing financial crisis in business circumstances recently, showed average value of 3.29. It was significantly lower than that of the other three hospital. Also, The activity score for patient safety was markedly lower than that of the other three hospital. This result become interested in the process of linking non-financial performance and financial performance. The level score of safety activity in A hospital which obtained healthcare accreditation was remarkably higher than that of the other three hospital which didn't certify healthcare accreditation. Pratical Implications : Subjects about Q.I or patient's experience management must be included in curriculum of Oriental medicine. It is necessary to get the effect of job training program for faculty and staff member through the process of preparation for obtaining healthcare accreditation. When the hospital director is appointed, it must be considered that he/she has the ability to attach importance to analysis and management of the factors creating safety accident, and has business mindset for healthcare delivery of customer- centricity. This research showed that financial performance of hospital, which of business environment is favorable; located in metropolitan city and having large scale of hospital and quality of residence rating but low-level of safety culture and safety activity, was lower than that of general hospital situated in small and medium-sized cities. More research needs to be done for answering this result.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate predictors of nurses' patient safety behavior during inter-hospital transfer. The study was based on the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). Methods: A descriptive survey design was used. Data were collected with a self-administrated 39-item questionnaire completed by 111 nurses from a university hospital in Seoul, South Korea. The questionnaire was developed based on the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) guideline and included measure of self-reported past patient safety behaviors, intentions, attitudes, subjective norms and perceived behavioral controls. Ethical approval was granted by the hospital review board. Hierarchical regression analyses were carried out. Results: The average score of patient safety behavior was $4.21{\pm}0.63$ (5 point scale). The TPB variables explained 49.9%of the variance in patient safety behavior. Intention and subjective norm were the most significant predictors of nurses' patient safety behavior. Attitude was related to nurses' patient safety behavior. Conclusion: TPB variables predicted the nurses' patient safety behavior during inter-hospital transfer of patients except for perceived behavioral controls. The results of this study suggest that better strategies for subjective norms and intentions related to patient safety behavior will be helpful in safety culture reform.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify awareness of hospital safety culture (AHSC) and safety activities (SA) of workers in a tertiary care hospital, and the factors influencing safety activities. Methods: 303 Participants from the tertiary care hospital in Seoul were invited. Collected data were analyzed using SPSS 18.0. Results: The level of AHSC and SA was 3.61 and 4.17, respectively. There were differences between AHSC and SA according to gender, religion, employment status, job class, working period, safety education, need for safety education, and number of safety accident reports. There was a positive relationship between AHSC and SA. The factors influencing SA were communication and process, employment status, and safety accident reports. Conclusion: AHSC and SA are important factors to improve hospital safety, as well as increasing chances to receive hospital accreditation.
Purpose: This study is aimed to provide the fundamental data for building the patient safety culture by identifying the perceptions of patient safety culture of hospital nurses. Methods: this study was a cross-sectional survey. For this study, 816 nurses participated from three general hospital and one university hospital located in Gwangju and Chonnam. The data were collected from April to June, 2012 by self-administrated questionnaires. The 'Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture'developed AHRQ(2004) and translated in Korean and edited by Je(2006), was used to measure the patient safety culture which the nurses were perceived. The collected data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe test using SPSS window 18.0. Results: With a possible score of 5 points, the average score for nurses'perceived patient safety culture 3.32. In the sub dimension of patient safety culture, the score hospital-level aspects was the highest level of 3.27(0.50) and reporting system medical errors was the lowest of 3.08(0.40). The difference of perception level on patient safety culture were statistically significant depending on demographic and job-related characteristics such as age, hospital level, work experience in present hospital, work experience in present unit, work experience in present area, positions, work hours of week. Conclusion: The scores of perception of which were shown to be relatively low in this study, needed to be improved through continuous education, evaluation and researches. We suggest developing a new tool on patient safety culture fit our country which will help to manage ongoing patient safety culture.

Subjects were all nurses and managers in nursing department of a tertiary teaching hospital in Seoul. Collected data from survey was statistically analyzed using t-test. Results: Patient Safety Program had been continued for 20 months in participation of all nurses and managers. Safety culture was improved (pretest=2.84, posttest=2.90, p<.001; 4 point scale). Conclusions: This study indicates that there has been a statistically significant increase in the nurses' perception of safety culture. These findings suggest that Patient Safety Program had made great contribution toward system wide safety culture in the hospital. To improve safety culture, leadership supports and flexibility to apply tailored interventions to the hospital were required necessarily.
Purpose: This study was performed to measure hospital nurses' perceived patient safety culture and their safety care activities, and to investigate the relationship between these two factors. Method: This study was a cross-sectional survey. The participants were 301 nurses working at 4 general hospitals, and data collection was done from June 22 to June 30, 2009 by self-administrated questionnaires. Results: With a possible score of 5 points, the average score for nurses' perceived patient safety culture was 3.34, and for their safety care activities, 4.25. There were perceived differences in patient safety culture and safety care activities according to age, position, length of work experience and number of patient safety education sessions attended. All sub-factors in patient safety culture had a positive relationship with safety care activities. Factors influencing nurses' safety care activities were number of patient safety education sessions attended, hospital environment, and supervisor/manager. These factors explained 58.2% of the variance. Conclusion: The findings indicate that patient safety education is very important to improve nurses' safety care activity. So nursing supervisors/ managers should develop strategies encourage patient safety education, and make nurses' working environment safer.
Purpose: This study was performed to determine whether positive psychological capital and role conflict among hospital nurses influence patient safety competencies. Methods: Data were collected from nurses working at one hospital with more than 800 beds in J Province. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Scheffé's test, Pearson's correlation analysis and hierarchical regression analysis using SPSS 26.0 program. Findings: In the hierarchical regression analysis, positive psychological capital, role conflict, bachelor's degree or higher as the highest level of education achieved, and three or more experiences reporting accidents impacting patient safety were found to significantly correlate with subjects patient safety competency. Among these, positive psychological capital emerged as the strongest factor, and the explanatory power of Model 4 was determined to be 38.1%. Conclusion: This study confirmed that hospital nurses' positive psychological capital and role conflict impact patient safety competency, underscoring the importance of organizational measures to increase patient safety awareness. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an educational program to strengthen hospital nurses' patient safety capabilities and conduct follow-up research to test its efficacy.
Purpose: This study was to examine the relationships between nurse's perception of patient safety culture and performance for safety nursing activities at rehabilitation hospitals. Methods: This study applied a descriptive research design. Participants were 194 nurses who have provided nursing services for more than 6 months at 4 rehabilitation hospitals located in B metropolitan city. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, $Scheff{\acute{e}}$ test, Pearson's correlation coefficients and multiple regression. Results: There was a positive correlation between the awareness of patient safety culture and safety nursing activity. Multivariate analysis showed that hospital work environment, experience of education, hospital climate, frequency of reported events, and marital status were significantly associated with the safety nursing activity. Overall, approximately 23.1% of total variability in the safety nursing activity could be explained by the 5 variables ($R^2=0.231$, p<.005). Conclusion: Nurses at rehabilitation hospitals are relatively positive about patient safety culture. Therefore, we need to develop safety education programs at the level of organization in order to improve patient safety through performing effective safety nursing activities in addition to increase awareness of patient safety culture among nurses. Furthermore, we need hospital's strategies at the system level for open communication and outcome reports regarding patient safety.
