“…Similar studies affirm that lack of clinical guidelines, lack of an effective and targeted system for proper monitoring of the programmes, not localising patient safety knowledge, and failure to implement planned programmes to prevent and decrease errors, were challenges to implementing patient safety programmes in hospitals.

Background. Despite the implementation of intervention strategies, incidents in specialised care units remain high and are of serious concern, worldwide. Objective. To assess the healthcare professionals’ perception of knowledge and implementation of patient safety incident (PSI) reporting and learning guidelines in specialised care units of three selected public hospitals in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Methods. The study used a descriptive, cross-sectional survey design. A purposive sample targeted 237 healthcare professionals. An online structured questionnaire collected the data. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse data. Results. A total of 181 questionnaires were returned, yielding a response rate of 76%. Notably, 83% of respondents had high-perceived knowledge of the PSI reporting and learning guidelines, while 98% had low perceptions of their implementation. The current unit (p=0.002) and shift of the day (p=0.008) were factors associated with the perception of good knowledge of PSI reporting and learning guidelines, as indicated by a p-value ≤0.05. The respondents’ age (p=0.05), current unit (p=0.015), and shift of the day (p=0.000) were significantly associated with the perception of poor implementation of the PSI reporting and learning guidelines. Conclusion. The respondents demonstrated a good perception of knowledge of PSI reporting and learning guidelines; however, the perception of the implementation was poor. Therefore, a revised implementation strategy coupled with periodical in-service training for healthcare profes

“…Some researchers even argue that patients' perceptions of safety are more accurate than care providers (16,20). Awareness of patients' perceptions of safety in the hospital environment can lead to first, increase the commitment of senior managers and hospital management and thus increase the quality of care (21); and second, developing programs to involve the various groups of patient care providers in implementing the principles of patient safety protection and reducing errors and adverse events (22).…”

Background and aims: Identifying the strengths and weaknesses of safety culture in hospitals can be the basis for developing plans to improve the safety status of patients. This study aimed to determine the level of patient safety culture (PSC) from their view in medical-surgical wards of five teaching hospitals in Zanjan. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on 245 patients admitted to medical-surgical wards of five teaching hospitals in the Zanjan, Iran, from 2020-Agust-22 to 2020-November-21. Poisson time sampling method was used. Data collection was performed using a demographic information questionnaire and PSC scale. The data were analyzed using SPSS 18 and descriptive statistics, independent t test, and one-way analysis of variance. Results: The mean of total PSC was 3.63±0.60 out of 5. The highest mean of PSC was related to organizing and planning for care (3.87±0.71) and communication and teamwork (3.80±0.70). The lowest mean was related to information dissemination (3.31±0.60). Conclusion: Safety culture or, in other words, patients’ perception of the safety situation prevailing in studied wards and hospitals was moderate. Therefore, it needs to be upgraded and improved. Among the various dimensions of patient-perceived safety, the manner and extent of information sharing was worse. It is suggested that plans be made to direct actions to improve the patient’s safety culture in general and in the field of information dissemination in particular.
