| This table shows the mean (SD) Safety Climate Survey and Safety Climate Scale scores for each participating ICU. The maximum score is 5, higher scores reflecting a more positive safety climate. No significant differences in perception of safety climate were noted between ICUs (SCSu, p = 0.996; SCSc, p = 0.944). Sample sizes differed between surveys because all respondents did not complete all items of each survey. Thus, analyses were completed on surveys where respondents completed all items per scale. | ||||
