The Effects of a Simulation-Based Patient Safety Education Program on Compliance with Patient Safety, Perception of Patient Safety Culture, and Educational Satisfaction of Operating Room Nurses.

Background: Operating rooms (ORs) are healthcare areas that are high-risk regarding patient safety (PS). The prevention of PS errors such as wrong-site surgery, medication errors, and patient falls is important in the OR. Causes such as having insufficient information, not taking enough care and precautions, and inattention may lead to errors.
