Developed by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), the Nursing Home Survey on Patient Safety Culture, a validated tool for measuring safety culture, was initially released in 2008. The survey expanded on the original hospital-based survey. Similar to that tool, AHRQ now provides annual comparative reports that present benchmarking data for safety culture across different regions, facility types, and staff positions. This edition shares data from 226 nursing homes and more than 16,000 staff. Notable findings include widespread concern about punitive responses to mistakes and safety concerns about poor staffing. An AHRQ WebM&M commentary discussed quality and safety issues in the nursing home setting.
