“…However, an evaluation of the PSFHI programme in seven countries covered by the WHO EMRO indicated that none of the participating hospitals met the minimum compulsory standards required for the hospitals enrolled in the program (Siddiqi et al, ). Studies evaluating the status of patient safety friendly standards in Iranian hospitals show poor status of standards for attracting patients and community participation (Asefzade, Mehrabian, Nikpey, & Kianmehr, ;Mazhari & Adel, ) and has also shown that patient engagement is afforded little respect in the Iranian healthcare system (Atoof et al, ). Another qualitative study (Hooshmand, Tourani, Ravaghi, & Ebrahimipour, ) suggests encouraging patients' participation in the treatment process, advocating reorganization culture and concentrating on patient safety, patients' satisfaction and effective dealing with complaints to make the health system more patient‐oriented.…”

AimTo investigate barriers to patient engagement in the delivery of safe hospital care.DesignQualitative exploratory study.MethodsA qualitative study with 35 Iranian health professionals was conducted from February to April 2019 using semi‐structured interviews to elicit their opinions. MAXQDA 11 software was used for data management, and the data were analysed using framework analysis.ResultsBarriers, which potentially have negative impact on patient engagement in the delivery of safer care, were categorized into four themes. The first category included patient‐related barriers such as low levels of health literacy, ineffective education, patient unwillingness and cultural barriers. The second category included staff‐related barriers such as the existence of negative attitudes towards engaging patients in matters relating to patient safety, ineffective communication, high workload and the reluctance on the part of physicians to engage with patients. Barriers created by limited resources and inadequate training provided by universities and in the workplace formed the third category and community‐related barriers such as the inadequate dissemination of information via the mass media and a lack of community‐based services formed the fourth category.ConclusionResults demonstrate the multilayered nature of the significant barriers to the engagement of patients in the delivery of safe care and reflect the need for a collaborative approach between the recipients of care, researchers, care providers and policy makers if these are to be overcome.

“…Patient safety as a major cause of healthcare quality is meant to avoid causing injury to the patient during healthcare provision ( 1 ). Due to the increased injuries of hospitalized patients, the idea that healthcare systems are not secure enough and are in need of improvement has been taken into consideration increasingly ( 1 , 2 ). A review of studies showed that many patients receiving care in hospitals face complications or injuries arising from the provision of treatment services and a problem is added to an already existing problem ( 2 ).…”

BACKGROUND: Improving patient safety is a global health imperative, and patient safety climate is one of the components one that plays an important role in promoting patient safety. Medical error reporting is a way through which it can be evaluated and prevented in the future. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between patient safety climate and medical error reporting in military and civilian hospitals.METHODS: This research was conducted by using structural equation modeling in the selected hospitals of Iran in 2018. The study community consisted of 200 nurses in the military and 400 nurses in the civilian hospitals. By using Structural Equation Modeling, the relationship between patient safety climate and the rate of medical error reporting in the hospitals was measured by a questionnaire. Data was analyzed using SPSS 17 and LISREL 8.8 software.RESULTS: The mean score of patient safety climate was moderate in the hospitals. There was no significant relationship between the rate of medical error reporting and patient safety climate, while a significant difference was found between patient safety climate score and age, sex, job category, and type of hospital (P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: The results suggested that patient safety climate and the rate of reporting errors were not favorable in the studied hospitals, while there was a difference between safety climate dimensions.

“…Marderstein, Simmons, and Ochoa () reported that 38% had serious pulmonary complications among 57 patients with mechanical ventilation who had impaired nasogastric intubation. In another study in Iran, Asefzade et al () indicated that the status of patient safety in education and treatment centres of Rasht city was unsatisfactory. However, Janghorbani, Raisi, Dehghani, and Mousavi () in their study on the status of Shahid Beheshti Hospital operating room safety indicated that the level of patient safety standards was desirable.…”

AimThe present study aimed to determine the level of applying safety standards in treatment and therapy processes.DesignIn the present descriptive study, 120 cases of nasogastric intubation, bladder catheterization and intramuscular and intravenous injections done by emergency staff were randomly selected.MethodsThe data were collected by a two‐section checklist including demographic features and four sheets of observation. Then, the data were analysed based on descriptive statistics.ResultThe results indicated that the level of compliance with safety standards was 63.3% in intramuscular injection, 86.7% for intravenous injection, 90% for bladder catheterization and 80% for nasogastric intubation. In addition, no statistically significant difference was observed between these processes and the variables such as ages, education and experience and work shift.
