Tiivistelmä	The Clinical Handover Quality Scale (CHQS) is a comprehensive framework and measurement tool for assessing the quality of clinical handovers—the critical communication process by which responsibility for a patient's care is transferred from one provider or team to another. Handovers occur multiple times daily in healthcare settings (shift changes, patient transfers between units, discharge planning, procedure-to-recovery transitions) and are recognized as high-risk moments for communication breakdown, incomplete information transfer, and consequent patient harm. The CHQS measures handover quality across dimensions including information content, clarity, timeliness, opportunity for questions, and documented understanding. It is used in hospitals, operating rooms, and intensive care units to assess handover effectiveness and to guide improvement in standardized handoff protocols such as SBAR (Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation).	The Patient Safety Climate Scale (PSCS) is a focused, brief assessment tool designed to measure staff perceptions of the safety climate within a specific healthcare unit or department. Unlike broader safety culture instruments, the PSCS concentrates on the immediate work environment—how safety is prioritized at the team and unit level, whether staff feel supported in reporting concerns, and whether leadership demonstrates commitment to preventing harm. The PSCS has been used in hospitals, ambulatory centers, and long-term care facilities to rapidly assess readiness for safety initiatives or to track improvements following targeted interventions.
