ŘEHOŘOVÁ, Anežka
Current status: Providing healthcare services requires high professionalism and safety. Organizational culture and safety culture are essential for recognising potential risks or hazards that could harm patients. Therefore, it is crucial to continually focus on and strengthen team spirit, cooperation, collaboration, and the workplace atmosphere. Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of safety culture on the quality of care provided. Methodology: The research utilized a quantitative and qualitative research investigation through surveying and in-depth interviews. Organizational culture was assessed using the standardized questionnaire "Questionnaire of Social Inclusion" (Kollárik, 2011). 205 nurses from hospitals in the South Bohemian region participated in the survey. In the qualitative part of the research, safety culture was evaluated, and in-depth interviews were conducted with ten nurses working in intensive care units or anaesthesiology and resuscitation departments of selected hospitals in the South Bohemian region. Results: The dimensions of safety culture that were rated the highest were "Ensuring patient safety," with an average score of 8.29 ? 1.66, and "Self-development for employees," with an average score of 8.08 ? 1.63. A positive correlation was confirmed between nurses' interest in cooperation and team communication (p < 0.001; r = 0.76), between nurses' satisfaction and team management (p < 0.001; r = 0.676), between the assessment of patient safety and the workplace atmosphere (p < 0.001; r = 0.429), and team communication (p < 0.001; r = 0.508). The results of the qualitative part of the research sample confirmed that organizational culture, especially team communication and cooperation, to some extent, influences ensuring patient safety during hospitalization. Concerning safety culture, nurses' most common complaints were related to hospital management support, lack of healthcare staff, and employee overload. Conclusion: The results obtained confirm the critical significance of safety culture and organizational culture in healthcare, as both play an indispensable role in the field
