Abstract :It was aimed to determine whether nurses\\\' perceptions of nursing diagnoses affect patient safety culture. This study had a descriptive cross-sectional design and was conducted in a state hospital in a province in the east of Turkey. The population of the present study consisted of 270 nurses who volunteered to participate. The data were collected by using the Nurse Identification Form, the Perceptions of Nursing Diagnosis Survey, and the Patient Safety Culture Scale. The SPSS 26 package program was used in data analysis. The average age of nurses was found to be 29.53±5.36, the mean score in the Perceptions of Nursing Diagnosis Survey was 2.39±0.64, and the mean score in the Patient Safety Culture Scale was 2.72±0.62. No relationship was detected between the mean score in the Perceptions of Nursing Diagnosis Survey and the Patient Safety Culture Scale, but a positive relationship was detected between the general mean score in the Perceptions of Nursing Diagnosis Survey and the mean score in employee behavior from the sub-dimensions of the Patient Safety Culture Scale, between ease of use and employee behavior, and between conceptual aspect and employee training. According to the results of this study, it was found that nurses\\\' perceptions of nursing diagnoses were moderate, patient safety cultures were positive, patient safety culture was not affected by the perception of nursing diagnoses and was affected by the previous patient safety situation. It is recommended that the factors affecting patient safety culture be examined in more detail.
