All health care systems in the world occasionally give harm to patients who apply to them unintentionally. In healthcare institutions performing applications based on security software, it has been seen that the safety culture has improved and the harm given to the patients has declined. In order to improve patient safety in health care settings, we need to establish a culture of patient safety. Personnel perceptions supporting patient safety emerges as an important measurement. The aim of this research is to evaluate the perception of 76 health personnel on patients’ safety culture according to the sociodemographic features. As data collection tool for health care providers, Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture was used. In the study, it has been seen that the health personnels’ perceptions about patient safety differ according to working years and working units. It has been seen that %67,1 of health personnel didn’t fill in any event report and that the average point of the hospital’s patient safety is 2,68.
