Abstract

Objective: To analyze the perception of nursing professionals from a surgicenter at a private hospital of patient’s safety culture dimensions. Method: This is a descriptive and exploratory study with a quantitative approach, conducted in a private and accredited hospital institution, including 37 nursing professionals from surgicenters. It used the Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture instrument for data collection. Results: The dimension “Organizational learning and continuous improvement” was identified as a strong area (77.4%) in the institution. We found four weak areas regarding the dimensions: “Teamwork within units” (47.4%); “Communication opening” (45.8%); “Nonpunitive response to errors” (29.2%); and “Team Adequacy” (42%). Conclusion: Implementing changes that require efforts from the entire hospital institution at the strategic, administrative, and operational levels are required, mainly to encourage professionals’ attention when conducting actions that strengthen a nonpunitive culture, and to study their dimensioning regarding patient’s care during the perioperative period
