“…1 Explanations for this phenomenon vary; however, significant causes were found to be related to an unhealthy practice environment (PE) affecting health care professionals (HCPs) quality and safety. 2 In addition, the current underinvestment in the health care sector, along with poor PE, creates HCP job dissatisfaction leading to a poorer quality of nursing care. 2 Furthermore, it is likely that this could negatively impact staff retention, performance, and productivity.…”

“…7 Furthermore, the establishment of PE is associated with NQS through cooperative work in patient decision-making. 2 The study of Koinis et al 8 reported that negative PE contributes to poor NQS for nurses in their clinical settings. This increases the likelihood of negative PE, worsened patient-care quality, and reduced work productivity.…”

“…10 In addition, the perspectives of health care professionals, especially nurses, in regard to PE could impact their attitudes and behaviors, further affecting QNS. 2 Daily nurses experience several dynamic challenges and errors (related to patient health status, interactions with coworkers, equipment usage, etc.) which can increase their stress levels, influencing QNS.…”

Background The Philippines experiences several challenges pertaining to the quality of the practice environment (PE) and nursing quality safety (NQS) among nurses. Although there is already considerable empirical data on PE effects on NQS, there is still little overall information on the association between these variables. Aim This survey study examined the contribution of nurses’ perceptions of their PE on their perception of their PE's quality of safety among hospital nurses in the Philippines. This survey was conducted in two government hospitals and two private hospitals in the Philippines. Participants A total of 374 nurses selected from two selected government hospitals and two private hospitals in the Philippines using a convenience sample technique. Methods Data were collected using a self‐administered questionnaire focusing on the PE and NQS among nurses. Results The overall PE mean score of nurses is 3.07 (SD = 0.159) while the overall mean score of their NQS is 3.97 (SD = 0.702). NQS was higher in female nurses compared with male nurses (M = 2404 vs 4.16). Nurses assigned to emergency departments (F = 1.04, [df = 11], and P = .025) presented higher perceived NQS compared with those in other departments. Conclusion Nurses report moderate PE and higher NQS. Sex and emergency room department are significantly associated with NQS. Health care services have an obligation to ensure strong PE, as an important factor in regard to nursing management and affecting the QNS.
