Patient safety is defined as the prevention of harm to patients while in health care. Patient
safety also means reducing the risk of unnecessary harm when the patient is in health
nursing care. Patients need maximum protection guarantees in health services. It is very
important to evaluate the knowledge and attitudes of nurses about patient safety through
the identification of all risks that may be faced by nurses. Given the importance of patient
safety, the purpose of this study was to examine the effect of nurses' knowledge and
attitudes on patient safety. The method used in writing this article is in the form of a
literature review. Article searches are carried out through Google Search Engine through
the use of the keywords “patient safety”, “knowledge”, “attitude” and “nurse”. The work
unit, and knowledge of patient safety are factors that are significantly related to knowledge
of patient safety. In addition, gender, work experience, having patient safety information,
knowledge about patient safety have a significant relationship with attitudes towards
patient safety. Nurses can be more confident in increasing knowledge and attitudes
towards patient safety through a good understanding of the factors that influence each
other. A high attitude towards patient safety can help nurses to continue to provide safe
patient care
