The Teamwork and Safety Climate Survey (TSCS) is one of the questionnaires used to measure patient safety. The questionnaire includes two scales: teamwork climate and safety climate. The objective of the study is the linguistic and cultural adaptation of the TSCS to Polish conditions and checking the reliability and usability of the tool in long-term care facilities. Firstly, the TSCS was translated into Polish. Then, a cross-sectional survey was conducted among the medical and auxiliary personnel of long-term care facilities all over Poland. The psychometric properties of the questionnaire were analysed (including Cronbach's alpha coefficient). Correlations between the areas of the questionnaire and individual variables relating to facility parameters were also calculated. Respondents (n = 558) working in 26 different long-term care facilities participated in the study. The analysis has provided four scales instead of two of the original version of the questionnaire (teamwork climate, safety climate, ability to speak up and following the rules, work organisation). Correlation analysis revealed a number of significant correlations between the scales and individual variables corresponding to the parameters of long-term care facilities and respondents themselves. In conclusion, the Polish version of the TSCS may be a useful tool to measure aspects related to patient safety culture in long-term care facilities.
团队合作与安全氛围调查（TSCS）是用于衡量患者安全的问卷之一。问卷包括两个量表：团队合作氛围和安全氛围。本研究的目的是对 TSCS 进行波兰语和文化适应性调整，并检查该工具在长期护理机构中的可靠性和可用性。首先，将 TSCS 翻译成波兰语。然后，在波兰各地的长期护理机构的医疗和辅助人员中进行了横断面调查。对问卷的心理测量特性进行了分析（包括 Cronbach 的 alpha 系数）。还计算了问卷各领域与与设施参数相关的个别变量之间的相关性。在 26 个不同的长期护理机构工作的 558 名受访者参加了这项研究。分析结果提供了四个量表，而不是问卷原始版本的两个量表（团队合作氛围、安全氛围、直言不讳和遵守规则的能力、工作组织）。相关分析显示，各量表与长期护理设施和受访者自身参数相对应的个别变量之间存在许多显著相关性。总之，波兰语版的 TSCS 可能是衡量长期护理设施中与患者安全文化相关方面的有用工具。
