Objective: to identify contents related to Patient Safety contemplated in the curricular units of a Nursing undergraduate course, according to the teachers who work in it, and to know the teaching methodologies and evaluation strategies used. Method: descriptive case study, carried out with 15 professors of the Nursing undergraduate course of a Brazilian public institution, in 2014, who answered an online questionnaire. For data analysis, the guide of the World Health Organization was used as reference. Results: it was verified that patient safety contents are developed in the undergraduate course, referring to eight topics mentioned in the World Health Organization guide. There was a lack of contents of the topics “What is Patient Safety”, “Why applying human factors is important for Patient Safety”; and “Learning from errors to prevent harm”. The use of different teaching methodologies and evaluation strategies, both traditional and innovative, was identified. Conclusion and implications for the practice: the pedagogical project of the course must be revised, to align content, teaching methodologies and evaluation strategies and to promote the full development of this subject, both in the undergraduate Nursing course and in the other courses of the Health area.
