Patient Safety Climate in Healthcare Organizations survey (PSCHO)

Summary

The Patient Safety Climate in Healthcare Organizations (PSCHO) is a tool, outlined by Singer et al. in their 2007 paper Workforce Perceptions of Hospital Safety Culture: Development and Validation of the Patient Safety Climate in Healthcare Organizations Survey (available on the Health Services Research website).

Designed in the US, it is used to assess healthcare employees' perception of the safety culture in their organisation.

PSCHO is available to download via the Measurement Instrument Database for the Social Sciences (MIDSS).
