Purpose: Although the patient safety is the first priority in hospitals, the safety strategies and supportive programs for nurses in medium and small-sized hospitals are still insufficient. The purpose of this study was to identify the correlates of patient safety performance related to characteristics of nurses working at small-medium sized hospitals with less than 200 beds.
Methods: The study design was a descriptive correlational design. Data were collected from 211 nurses of seven small-medium sized hospitals located in Seoul, Korea. Study variables measured by using survey questionnaires were patient safety performance, safety culture, job satisfaction, and general characteristics. Data were analyzed by multiple regression using SPSS/WIN 22.0 program.
Results: The strongest factor associated with patient safety performance was communication process (β=.21, p=.002) followed by working environment (β=.21, p=.008), satisfaction on job contents (β=.16, p=.033), and safety management manual in hospital (β=.12, p=.041). Among general characteristics, nurses unmarried, working as staff nurses, having more than 10 years of clinical experience, and working at hospitals with the first nursing grade performed better patient safety performance.
Conclusion: The study findings suggest that the small-medium sized hospitals require strategies for nurses, supportive working environment, clear job contents, and qualitative safety management manuals.
