Abstract: (853 Views)
Background and Objectives: Safety in the health service system of all countries around the world means observing the principles that, if applied correctly, will not harm the patient or will minimize possible injuries. The concept of patient safety is a very essential component of health care systems, therefore, this study was conducted to explain the experiences of nurses of patient safety challenges in Zahedan Social Security Hospital.
Materials and Methods: The present study is a qualitative study with a phenomenological approach. Participants were selected from the nursing community based on admission criteria by purposive sampling and sampling was continued until information saturation and 14 people including two supervisors, one head nurse and eleven nurses were selected between the ages of 22-45 years. Data were collected by in-depth and semi-structured interviews and then data analysis was performed by Colaizzi method.
Results: From the results of the interview analysis, 130 initial codes were extracted out of which the five main themes of dissatisfaction, physical trauma, awareness, human resources, and equipment resources were obtained. The dissatisfaction theme, in turn included two sub-themes of forced overtime and high workload. The main themes of physical trauma included two sub-themes of occupational hazards and environmental stress. The main theme of awareness included three sub-concepts. The main theme of human resources included three sub-concepts and the main theme of equipment resources included four sub-concepts.
Conclusion: Physical trauma in relation to medical errors is one of the most significant safety challenges for the patient that should be given special attention.
