Abstract:
To understand the current status of emergency nurses’ patient safety attitude cognition and its influencing factors, 746 emergency nurses from 34 hospitals were investigated with the revised Chinese version of the safety attitude questionnaire. The results showed that the total mean score of patient safety attitude of emergency nurses was (3.98±0.40) points, which was above the middle level. Among them, the mean scores of team cooperation, safety atmosphere, management perception, work satisfaction, working condition, and stress perception were (4.14±0.85) points, (3.85±0.81) points, (3.90±0.81) points, (3.91±0.85) points, (3.86±1.06) points, and (3.89±0.59) points, respectively. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that length of service and grade of hospital were the influencing factors of emergency nurses’ patient safety attitude (P<0.05). It is suggested that the managers should incorporate patient safety culture into the training and management of emergency nurses, especially strengthen the safety culture education for junior nurses; the secondary hospital should also focus on enhancing team cooperation training for emergency nurses and improving the working environment of them, so as to reduce unsafe behaviors in nursing work and ensure patients’ safety.
