About this trial

The safety integration stakeholders (saints) program to integrate worker and patient safety in Oregon rural hospitals. The rationale is that the saints program will positively impact outcomes by identifying and training peer leaders on strategies to optimize environmental, administrative, and educational components to become a saint and regularly collaborate with safety stakeholders/administrative leaders at each site through continuous improvement cycles (e.g. plan-do-study-act).

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

Safety participation

Shared perceptions that worker safety is a priority at a hospital. We will use the safety compliance scale developed by Neal and Griffin. A six-item scale will be used to measure this self-reported construct, including three items for safety compliance (e.g., "I use the correct safety procedures for carrying out my job") and another three items for safety participation (e.g., "I voluntarily carry out activities that help to improve workplace safety"). Higher scores mean higher safety participation.
