Resumen
RAMIREZ-MARTINEZ, M.E. y GONZALEZ PEDRAZA-AVILES, A.. Culture of safety and adverse events in a first level clinic. Enferm. univ [online]. 2017, vol.14, n.2, pp.111-117. ISSN 2395-8421. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.reu.2017.02.006.
Objective:
To identify the perception on climate and culture of safety and prevalence of adverse events among nurses in a first level clinic.
Methods:
This is a descriptive, transversal and prospective study conducted in a family medicine clinic located at the south of Mexico City. The questionnaire hospital survey on patient safety culture was used. Descriptive statistics were obtained and analyzed with spss v22.
Results:
A total of 27 nurses agreed to participate in the study. The average age of the participants was 44.7 years old. Close to 15% said they perceive a patient safety climate between excellent and very good. The 66.7% describe having not noticed any adverse event. The dimension of feedback and communication about errors with 75.3% appears globally as a strength. In the perceived weaknesses, 2 dimensions stand out: non-punitive response to errors with 61.7% and staffing with 62% both correspond to the area or culture of service-level safety culture.
Conclusions:
Approximately one third of the interviewed had not reported any adverse event during the previous years, while a little more than half perceive a patient safety climate between acceptable and superior.
