Effect of Evidence Based Teamwork System on Patient Safety Culture

Effect of Evidence Based Teamwork System on Patient Safety Culture Among Newly Graduate Nurses at Main Mansoura University Hospital

This study aims to evaluate the effect of evidence-based teamwork system on patient safety culture among newly graduate nurses at Main Mansoura University Hospital

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Safety Issues
• Intervention / Treatment: Other: TeamSTEPPS

Detailed Description

Developing a patient safety culture was one of the recommendations made by the Institute of Medicine to assist hospitals in improving patient safety and crucial for healthcare quality. Newly graduated nurses with lower levels of work experience, education, and work as part of a team in the healthcare setting are needed to develop communication and teamwork skill to improve patient safety culture . Ineffective communication and teamwork skill among newly graduated nurses are associated with negative patient safety culture outcomes, such as increased error rates, increased length of hospital stay, medication errors, pressure ulcers, and death. The implementation of modified TeamSTEPPS is highly expected to promote better interprofessional communication and teamwork skill between newly graduate nurses as well as improve patient safety culture. So that, this study aims to evaluate the effect of evidence-based teamwork system on patient safety culture among newly graduate nurses at Main Mansoura University Hospital.
