Introduction:Patient safety is a fundamental principle in healthcare. Patient's safety-friendly standards are a set of requirements which are critical to the implementation of a hospital-wide patient safety program. This study aims to investigate patient's safety in Ahvaz Abuzar Hospital based on patient's safety-friendly standards.
Method: This was a cross-sectional descriptive study conducted in 1401 on 30 employees related to patient safety through a non-random and purposive sampling method. The required data were collected by the first two axes of the World Health Organization's patient safety-friendly standards checklist, including governance and leadership - participation and interaction with patient and society, and using observation, interview and hospital documentation techniques. Data were analyzed using statistical tests (mean and standard deviation) of SPSS26 software and scored on a three-point Likert scale.
Results: The level of the hospital's compliance with the first two axes of patient's safety-friendly standards (64 standards in total) was considered good with an average of 80/4%. Mandatory and basic standards were at a good level and advanced standards were at an average level. The group of attracting participation and interacting with the patient and society with an average of 82/7% showed more compliance than the governance and leadership group with an average of 78/09%.
Conclusion: The condition of Abuzar Hospital was considered to be at a good level in terms of compliance with patient's safety-friendly standards. It is better to focus on the level of compliance with basic and advanced standards in future studies.
