Abstract: (42 Views)
Background and Aims: The Emergency Department is a high-risk, sensitive, and high-potential environment for missed nursing care. This study aimed to determine the relationship between missed nursing care and patient safety culture in Emergency Departments.
Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out using the census sampling method. The required data were collected utilizing demographic characteristics form, the Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture, Kalisch missed nursing care, and Blackman's questionnaire of factors associated with missed nursing care. Data analysis was performed using STATA software.
Results: The mean scores of patient safety culture, missed nursing care, and factors related to missed nursing care were 128.48±10.82, 52.41±2, and 52.48±11.55, respectively. Missed nursing care had a significant relationship with work setting (P=0.001) and passing a safety course (P=0.002). Regression analysis showed the relationship of factors affecting missed nursing care with patient safety, culture level, and demographic variables. Missed nursing care was associated with patient safety culture level.
Conclusion: The results showed that the mean scores of patient safety culture, missed nursing care, and factors related to missed nursing care in Emergency Departments were at a moderate level. Improving the work environment and holding training courses can help reduce missed care and promote patient safety culture.
