Summary

This completed study surveyed 143 healthcare workers at one hospital to see if their stress levels are linked to how they view patient safety. Participants filled out two anonymous questionnaires about their stress and the hospital's safety culture. The goal is to find workplace factors that might increase stress and affect safety, so hospitals can make improvements.
