To determine patient safety attitudes of midwives, nurses and physicians and to examine the difference or correlation in patient safety attitudes of midwives, nurses and physicians working in maternity hospitals.
It has been suggested that it is necessary to define the factors affecting patient safety attitudes of health professionals working in maternity hospitals.
A descriptive and correlational design was employed.The sample comprised 58 midwives, 134 nurses and 63 physicians (255) in two maternity hospitals in Istanbul, Turkey. The data were collected using an 'information form' and a 'Patient Safety Attitude Questionnaire'.
The safety attitudes of participants were generally found to be negative. However, midwives had more positive patient safety attitudes and the age, unit, adequacy of patient safety training and the importance of patient safety were the most effective variables.
As health professionals working in maternity hospitals generally have negative patient safety attitudes and because patient safety training provided better attitudes among the participants, these training programmes should be developed and implemented considering the differences among age groups and units.
Health professionals have different views on the patient safety culture; therefore, training needs to involve everyone to create a shared vision for patient safety.
了解助产士、护士和医生的患者安全态度,并研究在妇产科医院工作的助产士、护士和医生的患者安全态度的差异或相关性。
有人认为,有必要确定影响在妇产科医院工作的卫生专业人员患者安全态度的因素。
采用描述性和相关性设计。在土耳其伊斯坦布尔的两家妇产科医院,共纳入 58 名助产士、134 名护士和 63 名医生(共 255 名)作为研究对象。使用“信息表”和“患者安全态度问卷”收集数据。
参与者的安全态度普遍较为消极。然而,助产士的患者安全态度更为积极,年龄、科室、患者安全培训的充分性以及患者安全的重要性是最具影响力的变量。
由于在妇产科医院工作的卫生专业人员普遍对患者安全态度持消极态度,并且患者安全培训可以改善参与者的态度,因此,应考虑年龄组和科室的差异,制定和实施这些培训计划。
卫生专业人员对患者安全文化有不同的看法;因此,培训需要涉及每个人,以建立对患者安全的共同愿景。
