JARABA BECERRIL, C. et al. Evaluation of patient safety culture among family and community medicine residents in a hospital A and E department. Anales Sis San Navarra [online]. 2013, vol.36, n.3, pp.471-477. ISSN 1137-6627.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S1137-66272013000300012.

Background: Improving patient safety is a priority in all health care centres. It does not appear as a specific area of training in specialty programs. The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety culture of Family Medicine residents (MIR - Médico Interno Residente/Medical Internship and Residency). Methods: Transversal descriptive study. The Spanish version of the «Hospital Survey on Patient Safety» questionnaire was used. Strengths and opportunities for improving the service of the A & E Department were determined. Results: The most highly valued dimension was teamwork in the A & E Department. The worst qualified were «staffing» and «management support». None of those surveyed had notified any incidents in the unit. Conclusions: Amongst the MIR surveyed there is a lack of knowledge about the channels for notifying adverse events, as well as a training deficiency in safety culture. This should be strengthened in the training of specialists in Family and Community Medicine.
