Abstract

Nursing home residents are a vulnerable population to treatment errors and incidents. To reduce errors and incidents, a positive safety culture needs to be established. The study assessed the relationship between safety culture and quality of care (QOC) in a nursing home of East Java, Indonesia. This cross-sectional study involved 219 respondents recruited through multistage cluster samplings. This study included 13 nursing homes: 8 government-owned and 5 private nursing homes. SAQ-INA was used to assess safety culture, and questionnaires on perceived-based quality of care was used to assess QOC. The data were then analyzed using table frequencies, descriptive statistics, and the spearman test to determine the relationship between safety culture and quality of care. Safety culture was found to be significantly related to the quality of care (r = 0.000; p < 0.05). The highest and lowest mean (±SD) scores of safety culture were and quality of care were 55.93±5.844 and 21.50±2.327, respectively. The nursing homes need to improve service quality by increasing the resident safety through education or training in new staff orientation session.
