Abstract

The application of patient safety in hospital requires an active role from the head nurse in the form of guidance or supervision. The Application of an adequate supervision of the head nurse will have an impact on the application of optimal patient safety. This study aims to determine the relationship of head nurses’ supervision and the implementation of patient safety in hospital ward. This correlative study utilised cross sectional design. It involved 124 nurses who work in the ward of public hospital in Banda Aceh by single random sampling. Data was collected by a self-report questionnaires. The study shows that there was a relationship of the head nurses’ supervision and the implementation of patient safety (p-value = 0,000). The correlation was significant when viewed based on sub variables of 1) implementer (p-value = 0,000); 2) target (p-value = 0,000); 3) goal (p-value = 0,000). However, the correlation was insignificant viewed based on other sub-variables of frequency (p-value = 0,131); 2) and techniques (p-value = 0,164). The researchers suggest that the hospital should conduct the training for the head nurses to increase the knowledge of supervision and improve the application of patient safety in the hospital ward.
