Abstract

This cross-sectional and descriptive study was conducted to determine the patient safety attitudes of nurses working in surgical units and the factors affecting them. The study was conducted with 281 nurses working in the surgical units of two private hospitals in Ankara and the data were collected with the Descriptive Characteristics Form and Patient Safety Attitude Scale. Data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, t test, one-way ANOVA test, Kruskal Wallis test and Tukey test in SPSS 22.0 program. The mean total score of the "Patient Safety Attitude Scale" of the nurses was 117.32±26.06 and was considered to be close to the middle level. It was determined that the highest score was obtained from "working conditions" and the lowest score was obtained from "safety climate" sub-dimension. Significance was found between the patient safety attitude scores of nurses according to their work schedule, duration of hospital experience, average weekly working time, according to receiving patient safety training and participating in quality studies conducted in the institution. as a result, it shows that there is a need to improve the patient safety attitudes of nurses working in surgical units in the hospitals where the study was conducted, but it also shows that receiving training on patient safety and participating in the development processes of patient safety practices positively affect patient safety attitudes.

Özet

Bu çalışma, cerrahi birimlerde çalışan hemşirelerin hasta güvenliği tutumunu ve etkileyen faktörleri belirlemek amacıyla kesitsel ve tanımlayıcı türde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma, Ankara ilinde bulunan iki özel hastanenin cerrahi birimlerinde çalışan 281 hemşire ile yürütülmüş olup; veriler Tanıtıcı Özellikler Formu, Bireysel İş Yükü Algı Ölçeği ve Hasta Güvenliği Tutum Ölçeği ile toplanmıştır. Veriler SPSS 22.0 programında frekans, yüzde, ortalama, standart sapma, t testi, tek yönlü Anova testi, Kruskal Wallis testi ve Tukey testi kullanılarak analiz edildi. Hemşirelerin “Hasta Güvenliği Tutum Ölçeği” toplam puan ortalamaları 117.32±26.06 olarak saptanmış ve orta düzeye yakın olarak değerlendirilmiştir. En yüksek puanın “çalışma koşulları”, en düşük puanın ise “güvenlik iklimi” alt boyutundan alındığı belirlenmiştir. Hemşirelerin çalışma şekli, kurumsal deneyimi, ortalama haftalık çalışma süresi, hasta güvenliği eğitimi alma, kurumda yürütülen kalite çalışmalarına katılmalarına göre hasta güvenliği tutum puanları arasında anlamlılık saptanmıştır. Sonuç olarak, araştırmanın gerçekleştirildiği hastanelerde cerrahi birimlerde çalışan hemşirelerin hasta güvenliği tutumlarının geliştirilmesine gereksinim olduğunu göstermekle birlikte hasta güvenliğiyle ilgili eğitim almanın ve hasta güvenliği uygulamalarının geliştirilme süreçlerine katılımın hasta güvenliği tutumunu olumlu yönde etkilediğini göstermektedir.
