Background To improve harm prevention, patient engagement in safety at the direct care level is advocated. For patient safety to most effectively include patients, it is critical to reflect on existing evidence, to better position future research with implications for education and practice. Methods As part of a multi‐phase study, which included a qualitative descriptive study (Duhn & Medves, 2018), a scoping review about patient engagement in safety was conducted. The objective was to review papers about patients’ attitudes and behaviours concerning their involvement in ensuring their safe care. The databases searched included MEDLINE, CINAHL and EMBASE (year ending 2019). Results This review included 35 papers about “Patient Attitudes” and 125 papers about “Patient Behaviours”—indicative of growing global interest in this field. Several patterns emerged from the review, including that most investigators have focused on a particular dimension of harm prevention, such as asking about provider handwashing, and there is less known about patients’ opinions about their role in safety generally and how to actualize it in a way that is right for them. While patients may indicate favourable attitudes toward safety involvement generally, intention to act or actual behaviours may be quite different. Conclusion This review, given its multi‐focus across the continuum of care, is the first of its kind based on existing literature. It provides an important international “mapping” of the initiatives that are underway to engage patients in different elements of safety and their viewpoints, and identifies the gaps that remain.

“…Another challenge of the Iranian healthcare system is staff shortages, the financial pressures experienced by hospitals, lack of senior management support for patient safety culture and lack of systematic approach for reporting errors [43,44] which means patient safety is seen as a low priority by managers. For patient safety to be effective, there is a need for continuous educational advancement at every level of the organization.…”

Background There is growing interest in examining the factors affecting the reporting of errors by nurses. However, little research has been conducted into the effects of perceived patient safety culture and leader coaching of nurses on the intention to report errors. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted amongst 256 nurses in the emergency departments of 18 public and private hospitals in Tabriz, northwest Iran. Participants completed the Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture (HSOPSC), Coaching Behavior Scale and Intention to Report Errors’ questionnaires and the data was analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis. Results Overall, 43% of nurses had an intention to report errors; 50% of respondents reported that their nursing managers demonstrated high levels of coaching. With regard to patient safety culture, areas of strength and weakness were “teamwork within units” (PRR = 66.8%) and “non-punitive response errors” (PRR = 19.7%). Regression analysis findings highlighted a significant association between an intention to report errors and patient safety culture (B = 0.2, CI 95%: 0.1 to 0.3, P < 0.05), leader coaching behavior (B = 0.2, CI 95%: 0.1 to 0.3, P < 0.01) and nurses’ educational status (B = 0.8, 95% CI: − 0.1 to 1.6, P < 0.05). Conclusions Further research is needed to assess how interventions addressing patient safety culture and leader coaching behaviours might increase the intention to report errors.

AimTo investigate barriers to patient engagement in the delivery of safe hospital care.DesignQualitative exploratory study.MethodsA qualitative study with 35 Iranian health professionals was conducted from February to April 2019 using semi‐structured interviews to elicit their opinions. MAXQDA 11 software was used for data management, and the data were analysed using framework analysis.ResultsBarriers, which potentially have negative impact on patient engagement in the delivery of safer care, were categorized into four themes. The first category included patient‐related barriers such as low levels of health literacy, ineffective education, patient unwillingness and cultural barriers. The second category included staff‐related barriers such as the existence of negative attitudes towards engaging patients in matters relating to patient safety, ineffective communication, high workload and the reluctance on the part of physicians to engage with patients. Barriers created by limited resources and inadequate training provided by universities and in the workplace formed the third category and community‐related barriers such as the inadequate dissemination of information via the mass media and a lack of community‐based services formed the fourth category.ConclusionResults demonstrate the multilayered nature of the significant barriers to the engagement of patients in the delivery of safe care and reflect the need for a collaborative approach between the recipients of care, researchers, care providers and policy makers if these are to be overcome.
