Psychological safety aims to reduce patient-related harm by creating high performing teams, which are open and transparent, functioning in the absence of retribution. Models for delivering nursing care, along with matrices designed to monitor their impact, can negatively affect the adoption of psychological safety in practice. Strategies have been designed at national level to ensure the adoption of psychological safety, while, at a local level, individual organisations can implement processes to improve psychological safety from floor to board.
