Abstract

PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to identify the factors that affect nursing students' perception of pediatric safety nursing activities for children during hospitalization.
METHODS
The study sample included 304 nursing students who had participated in pediatric nursing practice. Data were analyzed using SAS 9.3 program.
RESULTS
Regression analysis showed that the model's explanatory power was 37%. Safety policy and procedure, safety priority, disaster experience, and knowing a place of refuge were factors affecting the perception of safety nursing activities for children during hospitalization.
CONCLUSION
Findings show that safety policy and procedures and safety priority are major factors that affect the perception of safety nursing activities and indicate that effective education programs on safety policy and procedure and safety priority are necessary to improve the perception of safety nursing activities.
