Background & aim: The first step in improving patient safety in hospitals is to evaluate the safety culture in medical units. Nurses can help promote a patient safety culture through a sense of responsibility and professional commitment. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between nurses' professional commitment and patient safety culture in teaching hospitals of Shahrekord University of Medical Sciences.
Methods: This descriptive correlational study was performed in three hospitals of Shahrekord and Borujen. The sample consisted of 359 nurses who were selected based on multistage sampling. Data collection tools were demographic information form and hospital survey questionnaires about patient safety culture and professional commitment of nurses. Data were analyzed by SPSS-20 software using descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) and liner regression.
Results: The mean scores of patient safety culture and professional commitment of nurses were 123.23 ± 16.15 and 85.65 ± 15.04, respectively. The results of regression test showed that there was a significant relationship between different dimensions of professional commitment and patient safety culture (p<0.001).
Conclusion: Based on the findings of the study, nurses with a high level of professional commitment have a higher safety culture. Therefore, an effort to improve the level of professional commitment of nurses can promote a patient safety culture. Authorities can also improve the quality of service and patient safety through dedicated empowerment.
