Background: It is critical to understand but difficult to study nursing behavior in response to safety interventions.
Methods: A common nursing scenario, evidence based on appropriate nursing actions in response to patient safety risks, and a corresponding measure of nursing behavior, the Safety Action Performance Scale, were developed. These tools were content validated and tested for feasibility.
Results: The scenario was low-cost, realistic, and successfully used in a mixed-method pilot study. The Safety Action Performance Scale was easy to use and revise for greater interrater reliability.
Conclusion: Simulation provides a feasible means for testing safety interventions to improve safety-oriented behavior and subsequent patient outcomes.
