Evaluation of a Patient Safety Advisory Among Inpatients—A Mixed Methods Study
The safety advisory seemed to promote behavioural change as 25% stated that they altered their actions after reading it. One challenge when advising patients about patient safety is optimising how the information is given, as more than a third of the participants did not read the safety advisory despite receiving it. This study indicates that the educational leaflet could promote safety behavioural change among inpatients.
