The Effectiveness of Error Reporting Promoting Strategy on Nurse¡¯s Attitude, Patient Safety Culture, Intention to Report and Reporting Rate
Kim Myoung-Soo

Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of strategies to promote reporting of errors on nurses¡¯ attitude to reporting errors, organizational culture related to patient safety, intention to report and reporting rate in hospital nurses.

Methods: A nonequivalent control group non-synchronized design was used for this study. The program was developed and then administered to the experimental group for 12 weeks. Data were analyzed using descriptive analysis, ¥ö2-test, t-test, and ANCOVA with the SPSS 12.0 program.

Results: After the intervention, the experimental group showed significantly higher scores for nurses¡¯ attitude to reporting errors (experimental: 20.73 vs control: 20.52, F=5.483, p=.021) and reporting rate (experimental: 3.40 vs control: 1.33, F=1998.083, p<.001). There was no significant difference in some categories for organizational culture and intention to report.

Conclusion: The study findings indicate that strategies that promote reporting of errors play an important role in producing positive attitudes to reporting errors and improving behavior of reporting. Further advanced strategies for reporting errors that can lead to improved patient safety should be developed and applied in a broad range of hospitals.
