Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture
The Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture (HSOPS) is a 42-item standardized instrument developed by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) to measure patient safety culture in hospital settings. First released in 2004 and revised in 2018, the HSOPS assesses 12 composite dimensions of safety culture across organizational, unit, and individual levels. It is one of the most frequently used and publicly reported safety culture measures, with data from over 1,000 hospitals contributing to AHRQ's national benchmarking database.
