“…Overall, positive organisational culture influences various elements of organisational behaviour, including healthcare quality and safety (Braithwaite, Herkes, Ludlow, Testa, & Lamprell, ; DiCuccio, ; Jacobs et al, ; Lee et al, ; Taylor, Clay‐Williams, Hogden, Braithwaite, & Groene, ). Implementation of PSC improves clinical practices; for example, the introduction of PSC has been linked to reductions in adverse events/errors (El‐Jardali, Dimassi, Jamal, Jaafar, & Hemadeh, ; Mardon, Khanna, Sorra, Dyer, & Famolaro, ; Robb & Seddon, ; Singer et al, ; Wang et al, ) and an improvement in certain clinician behaviours such as error reporting (Verbakel, Langelaan, Verheij, Wagner, & Zwart, ).…”

Aim To evaluate how a 3‐year patient safety intervention, more specifically, the implementation of a patient safety incident reporting system, influences patient safety culture. Background Positive patient safety culture improves both the quality of health care and patient safety. Nevertheless, nursing managers need tools that can help them develop and evaluate patient safety culture. Methods The Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture was used to evaluate patient safety culture at two Finnish forensic psychiatric hospitals (study and control) over two periods, baseline and follow‐up. Data were analysed using Z‐score and T test statistics. Results The follow‐up results from the study hospital showed that five patient safety culture dimensions exhibited a significantly (p < 0.05) positive change in positive response rates over the 3‐year period. Furthermore, nine out of twelve patient safety culture dimensions at the study hospital showed a significant improvement in mean score. At the control hospital, only the dimension of frequency of reporting events showed a significantly positive change (p < 0.05) in mean score. Conclusion This research shows that the studied patient safety intervention (implementation of the patient safety incident reporting system) significantly influences patient safety culture. Implications for Nursing Management Nursing managers should utilize a variety of patient safety interventions to improve patient safety and focus on leveraging information from patient safety incidents to advance patient safety culture.

“…In the United States, such organizations face a continually shifting environmental context, dependent on changing and uncertain state and national political forces. Increased demands to use resources more efficiently to provide continuous quality improvements in patient care have led healthcare researchers and practitioners to consider the role of HR as an integral component contributing to positive healthcare outcomes (Chuang, Dill, Morgan, & Konrad, 2012;De Koejier, Paauwe, & Huijsman, 2014;Gowen, McFadden, & Tallon, 2006;Jiang, Lepak, Hu, & Baer, 2012;Taylor et al, 2015). Strategic alignment of HRD is likely to be one such factor contributing to healthcare organizations' effectiveness in promoting positive patient outcomes.…”

Through fieldwork at a large healthcare organization, an initial measure of employees' perceptions of strategic human resource development (SHRD) alignment was developed. An empirical investigation of the 12‐item measure was conducted with 2062 employees from all levels and position types in a large healthcare organization in the mid‐south United States. The measure (SHRD‐AI) was found to have one factor with 82% of explained variance and was positively correlated as hypothesized with measures of perceived investment in employee development, learning‐organization culture, manager support for HRD, and psychological climate. Implications of the study include potential linkages between (a) employees' perceived SHRD alignment and (b) a learning culture promoting employee voice, which may be especially critical variables in healthcare organizations facing a wide range of strategic challenges.

Objetivo: O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar os Registos de Saúde Eletrónicos, pertencente a utentes com internamento, numa unidade de cuidados de um hospital público, em Portugal. Métodos: Foram utilizados dados relativos ao ano de 2014 e 2015, referentes a 668 doentes, com 14.001 dias de internamento, 4.123 diagnósticos e 614.634 intervenções, pelo que podemos considerar a análise empírica robusta. Resultados: Em ambos os anos, é notório que os dados são bem aproximados por funções exponenciais, o que fica espelhado pelos coeficientes de determinação extremamente elevados, obtidos para cada um dos casos. Este facto têm como implicação que a maior parte do trabalho efetivo dos enfermeiros desta unidade de cuidados advém de um pequeno número de tipos de intervenção, sendo possível argumentar, de forma análoga ao verificado para os diagnósticos, o que tem impactos importantes ao nível da gestão. Conclusões: A análise dos dados revelaram potencial para a criação de indicadores e análise da qualidade. Os Registos de Saúde Eletrónicos permitem a medição de resultados e também a identificação de melhores práticas clínicas associadas a esses resultados, devendo ser visto como uma ferramenta de gestão e de investigação, que pode apoiar processos de trabalho e de inovação na prestação de cuidados.
