“…Patient safety and patient safety culture has in recent years been the subject of extensive research, but most of the research has been carried out in hospitals [1]. Mortality rates due to adverse medical effects are 20 times higher for older patients (70 years+), compared to those who are younger (15-49 years) [2]. Improving patient safety measures within the health care services is therefore particularly important for the elderly.…”

Background: Transformational leadership style is considered to be of importance to increase patient safety, to facilitate a balance between job resources and job demands, and to create a sound patient safety culture within health care services. However, there is limited research assessing these associations within the context of nursing homes. The aim of this study was to assess the association between transformational leadership, job demands and job resources; and patient safety culture and employees' overall perception of patient safety in nursing homes. Method: A cross-sectional survey of employees in four Norwegian nursing homes was conducted (N = 165). Multiple hierarchical regression analysis was used to assess the explained variance of transformational leadership, job demands and job resources on patient safety culture and overall perception of patient safety. Results: Transformational leadership explained 47.2% of the variance in patient safety culture and 25.4% of overall perception of patient safety, controlling for age and gender (p < 0.001). Additionally, job demands and job resources explained 7.8% of patient safety culture and 4.7% of overall perception of patient safety (p < 0.001). Conclusion: Implementing transformational leadership style may be important in creating and sustaining sound patient safety culture in nursing homes. Furthermore, leaders should make an effort to facilitate a good work environment with an optimal balance between job demands and job resources, as this in turn might have a positive influence on patient safety culture.

“…Visas tris paminėtas dedamąsias (pacientas, medikas, sveikatos priežiūros sistema), kurios turi įtakos nepageidautinų įvykių atsiradimui, veikia globalūs veiksniai -karai, epidemijos, gamtinės nelaimės, ekonominiai nuosmukiai, revoliucijos, techninės katastrofos ir kiti. Nors šie veiksniai antriniai, tačiau jų poveikis nepageidautinų įvykių sveikatos priežiūroje (ligoninėse) pokyčiams yra didžiulis [3,17].…”

Sveikatos priežiūros kokybė ligoninėse ir vienas jos žymenų – nepageidautini įvykiai (kiekis, spektras, pasekmės) valstybės lygio ekstremaliosios situacijos ir karantino dėl Covid-19 metu gali skirtis nuo būklės ikiepideminiu laikotarpiu. Tyrimo tikslas – įvertinti nepageidautinų įvykių ligoninėje pokyčius ir jų įtaką sveikatos priežiūros kokybei valstybės lygio ekstremaliosios situacijos ir karantino dėl Covid-19 metu. Atliekant tyrimą, analizuotos įvairių šalių autorių mokslinės publikacijos, tirti nepageidautinų įvykių ekspertuoti pranešimai valstybės lygio ekstremaliosios situacijos ir karantino dėl Covid-19 metu 2020 m. ir tuo pačiu laikotarpiu 2019 metais. Atskleisti nepageidautinų įvykių spektro, priežastinių veiksnių, rizikos laipsnių bei išvengiamumo pokyčiai ir jų priežastys. Duomenys palyginti su kitų šalių patirtimi. Nustatyta, kad įvairūs nepageidautinų įvykių aspektai valstybės lygio ekstremaliosios situacijos ir karantino dėl Covid-19 metu ir tuo pačiu laikotarpiu iki Covid-19 epidemijos yra skirtingi.

“…Adverse effects of medical treatment are a serious public health problem, and one of the leading causes of death worldwide [ 1 , 2 , 3 ]. Preventable harm affects 6% of patients (95% confidence intervals: 5–7%), and some 25% of incidents relate to medicines [ 1 ].…”

Medicines management is a high-risk and error prone process in healthcare settings, where nurses play an important role to preserve patient safety. In order to create a safe healthcare environment, nurses should recognize challenges that they face in this process, understand factors leading to medication errors, identify errors and systematically address them to prevent their future occurrence. ‘’Pro re nata’’ (PRN, as needed) medicine administration is a relatively neglected area of medicines management in nursing practice, yet has a high potential for medication errors. Currently, the international literature indicates a lack of knowledge of both the competencies required for PRN medicines management and the optimum educational strategies to prepare students for PRN medicines management. To address this deficiency in the literature, the authors have presented a discussion on nurses’ roles in medication safety and the significance and purpose of PRN medications, and suggest a model for preparing nursing students in safe PRN medicines management. The discussion takes into account patient participation and nurse competencies required to safeguard PRN medication practice, providing a background for further research on how to improve the safety of PRN medicines management in clinical practice.
