Examining nursing students’ awareness of various medical errors during clinical internships to enhance patient safety: A multi-center cross-sectional study
Study findings indicate that nursing students exhibit a low tendency to commit medical errors, which is encouraging for the future implementation of patient safety protocols. This trend suggests that nursing students are developing strong competencies in safe nursing practices, which contributes to reducing the incidence of medical errors and improving overall patient safety in clinical settings.
