%X patient safety is a current topic and one that every health sector worker should always know. this issue has been documented since the year 2000, with the publishing of the book "to err is human", of the american national academy of sciences' institute of medicine. this book had a profound impact worldwide, as it arrived at the conclusion that each year, between 44.000 and 98.000 deaths can be blamed to errors in the caring processes in north american hospitals. this is why current research examines not only the knowledge of the concepts related to the safety of patients, but also its applications. this concludes in great detail the attitudes and perceptions of the health sector workers that, in the end, establishes the patient safety culture as a determining factor for a safe care. this state of the art analyses goes over previous studies made in the domain of patient safety culture and presents its conclusions and recommendations to what can be done about it.
