Background and aims: Patient safety is one of the basic indicators of health care, and investigating patient safety culture is a movement towards providing safe conditions for patient care. The purpose of this study was to investigate the attitude towards patient safety in pre-hospital emergency personnel of Ardabil province in 2002.
Methods: The present study was a cross-sectional descriptive study conducted on 376 pre-hospital emergency personnel in Ardabil province in 1402. The instrument used was Patterson's standard patient safety attitude questionnaire consisting of 30 questions and 6 dimensions. The sampling method was census. Data analysis was done based on descriptive statistics and independent t-tests, one-way analysis of variance, and linear regression in spss software version 22.
Results: The mean and standard deviation of the age of the participants in the study was 34.40±6.30. The mean and standard deviation of the attitude towards patient safety in Ardabil pre-hospital emergency personnel was 56.23±5.47. There was a statistically significant relationship between the variables of age, work experience, and education level with the patient's safety attitude (P<0.05). The lowest score of the safety domain was related to the dimension of group work conditions and the highest score was related to the recognition of stress. The results of linear regression showed a positive and significant correlation between age and work experience with patient safety attitude and a negative and significant correlation with education level.
Conclusion: The attitude towards patient safety among pre-hospital emergency personnel was not positive. Improving patient safety is necessary to improve patient care indicators. Also, special attention should be paid to the dimensions with a low average in this study to improve and strengthen these dimensions.
