ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to identify factors affecting patient safety management activities among nurses working in comprehensive nursing care units in South Korea. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted with 150 nurses recruited from five general hospitals in Gangwon-do, Chungcheong-do, and Gyeonggi-do. The SPSS/WIN 23.0 program was used to analyze descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Mann-Whitney test, Kruskal-Wallis test, Pearson correlation coefficients, and hierarchical regression. The mean score of self-efficacy and safety culture perception was 3.59 and 3.67, respectively. The mean score of patient safety care management activities was 4.35. The results of a hierarchical regression analysis show that safety culture perception was the greatest influencing factor, followed by self-efficacy. The findings suggest the need of educational programs to enhance nurses’ perception of patient safety culture and promote patient safety management activities for nurses providing comprehensive nursing care.
