Abstract:

Objective To understand the current status and influencing factors of patient safety competence among nurses in grade-A tertiary hospitals in Tianjin,explore its correlation with nurses' professional attitude,self resilience,and occupational deviant behavior,so as to provide a reference basis for targeted intervention measures. Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted from March to October 2024,and 600 nurses from five grade-A tertiary hospitals in Tianjin were selected as the survey subjects. The general information survey,patient safety competency nurse evaluation scale(PSCNES),Chinese version of professional attitude scale for nurses(PASN-C),Chinese version of ego-resiliency scale(ERS) and nurse workplace deviance behavior(NWDB) were used for the questionnaire survey,and the data were analyzed. Results The total score of patient safety competence among 600 nurses in grade-A tertiary hospitals in Tianjin was (124.86±27.59)points,the total score of professional attitude was (136.34±30.06)points,the total score of self resilience was (38.63±7.34)points,and the total score of occupational deviant behavior was (32.18±6.28)points. The total score of patient safety competence was positively correlated with the total score of professional attitude(r=0.632,P<0.01) and self resilience(r=0.574,P<0.01),and negatively correlated with the total score of occupational deviant behavior(r=-0.536,P<0.01). The different educational backgrounds,job titles,years of work experience,night shifts,participation in safety training,professional attitudes,self resilience,and occupational deviant behaviors entered the regression equation(all P<0.05). Conclusions The patient safety competence among 600 nurses in grade-A tertiary hospitals in Tianjin is at an above-average level,with education level,professional title,years of work experience,night shifts,participation in safety training,professional attitude,self resilience,and occupational deviant behavior being independent risk factors. It is suggested that hospital managers should provide nurses with multiple safety training channels,optimize the professional environment,create a good safety culture atmosphere,strengthen nurses' professional attitude and self resilience ability,further reduce occupational deviant behavior,thereby improving the patient safety competence among nurses,and further enhancing the quality of nursing services.
