Description
Background: Patient safety is one of the vital aspects that are integrated into the health care system and patients’ outcomes. It is crucial to focus on the concept of patient safety to improve health care services and the quality of care. The study was conducted to identify the variations in nurses’ safety attitudes based on their demographics.
Methods: This is a cross-sectional study conducted among 100 nurses working in teaching hospitals in Duhok City, Kurdistan Region, and Iraq. The data was collected using two parts of a survey: the safety attitude questionnaire and the demographics. The data were analyzed using SPSS statistical software version 24, which included descriptive and inferential statistical analysis with a P-value ≤ 0.05.
Findings: The study revealed that there was a statistically significant difference in nurses’ safety attitudes based on their level of education. The level of education and teamwork were correlated, and a significant correlation was found between working conditions and nurses' experience. Moreover, the study showed that there is no significant correlation between leadership roles and safety variables.
Conclusions: It is crucial to assess the factors that contribute to patient safety. To improve the quality of care and safety attitude, nurse leaders and stakeholders play an important role. Nurse leaders support a safe environment at the units of care. Moreover, focusing on achieving a higher level of education is crucial and recommended to enhance patient outcomes
