This study used the Safety Attitudes Questionnaire to explore whether participation in a comprehensive, multicomponent, statewide surgical quality collaborative is associated with changes in hospital safety culture. Survey results identified significant improvements in teamwork climate and safety climate, as well as improvements in physician-nurse collaboration, reporting of concerns, and reduction in communication breakdowns.
