Incorporating patient safety principles in academic and clinical education for health science professionals is necessary to support widespread adoption of safety practices. It is vital to understand nursing students' perspectives on patient safety and the extent to which patient safety is addressed in the classroom and clinical settings. In this cross-sectional study, students in all 4 years of an undergraduate program were asked to complete the Health Professional Education in Patient Safety Survey. Eighty-one percent (238 of 293) of students completed the questionnaire. Responses were favorable, with students reporting confidence in learning about a variety of patient safety competencies. Of note, there were decreasing levels of confidence in the third-year and fourth-year students and low-to-moderate correlation between classroom and clinical responses. These results support the importance of consistently engaging students in safety principles early in and throughout their health care programs.
将患者安全原则纳入卫生科学专业人员的学术和临床教育中，对于支持安全实践的广泛采用是必要的。了解护理学生对患者安全的看法以及患者安全在课堂和临床环境中得到解决的程度至关重要。在这项横断面研究中，要求本科所有 4 年级的学生完成《卫生专业人员患者安全教育调查》。81%（293 名学生中的 238 名）完成了问卷。学生的回答是肯定的，他们报告对学习各种患者安全能力有信心。值得注意的是，第三年和第四年学生的信心水平逐渐下降，课堂和临床反应之间的相关性较低至中等。这些结果支持在医疗保健项目的早期和整个过程中始终让学生参与安全原则的重要性。
