The results showed that there was a significant effect between knowledge (p ± value = 0.008), attitude (p ± value = 0.000), facilities (p ± value = 0.000), and work experience (p ± value = 0.002) on the behavior of nurses in the context of implementing patient safety at the Royal Prima Hospital Inpatient Medan in 2018.
