Abstract

Objectives: This study was conducted descriptively so as to determine the relationship between the patient security culture and medical error attitudes of the nurses. Methods: The population of the study was conducted between the dates that the data were collected in the hospitals in the eastern Turkey of 82 nurses working in children's services. The sampling selection method was not used in this study, but 68 nurses that were accessed between the dates and that accepted to participate in the study voluntarily were included in the sampling of the study. “Descriptive Information Form”, “Patient Security Culture Scale” (PSCS) and “Medical Error Attitude Scale” (MEAS), in which the socio-demographic information of the nurses is assessed, were used as data collection tools in the study. Results: Nurses received an average score of 3.71±0.27 from PSCS, and an average score of 3.02±0.44 from MEAS. A significant relationship was determined between the education status of the nurses and their PSCS total score (p<0.05). As a result of the correlation analysis it was determined that there was a positively significant relationship between the PSCS score and MEAS scores of the nurses, and as their PSCS scores increased, their MEAS scored increased as well. Conclusion:Evaluation of the current status by conducting regular measurements in regard to patient security in institutions and should be make improvements accordingly. Also, nurses should take responsibility in patient safety and improvement of patient safety culture should be the main priority of the institutions.
