How do nurses promote patient safety

Nurses promote patient safety by sharing information, listening to patient concerns, and following regulations. Nurses can promote patient safety by following regulations, such as proper techniques for moving patients around rooms. If there is a protocol set, it is important to follow it, even if it seems okay to skip it.

Nurses and staff can also discuss patient safety with patients and their families. There may be specifics related to the patient that require different protocols, and listening to these concerns is important for implementing appropriate arrangements.
