dc.description.abstractThis study investigates the impact of Clinical Alarm Management Practices and Knowledge (CAMPK) on Patient Safety as Perceived by Nurses (PSPN) and the moderating role of Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation within Palestinian hospitals. To this end, the Health Technology Foundation (HTF) 2016 Clinical Alarms Survey, was used to collect data from 102 nurses across various departments in Palestinian hospitals. Collected data were analyzed using the partial least squares-structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) via Smart PLS software. The findings of the analysis revealed that effective CAMPK positively enhance the PSPN with value of ( p = 0.004) . Furthermore, the study shows the importance of reducing nuisance alarms and the use of smart alarm systems as major and important elements of CAMPK that positively impact PSPN. JCI accreditation was found to have a minimum statistically significant effect on nurses’ perception of patient safety and a minimum moderating effect on the relation between CAMPK and PSPN. The analysis shows that the interaction effect between JCI and CAMPK on PSPN was not statistically significant p = 0.486 which is > 0.05 . In order to enhance patient safety perceptions this study suggests that accreditation alone is insufficient and a comprehensive approach integrating CAMPK and tailored accreditation processes is necessary. The findings show the complexity of patient safety improvements and the need for ongoing evaluation and adjustment of clinical practices and accreditation standards. The study's conclusion provides data highlighting the importance of effective Clinical Alarm Management Practices and Knowledge (CAMPK) in enhancing nurses' perceptions of patient safety (PSPN). Also this study provides the tools, for healthcare policymakers and administrators in Palestinian healthcare sector as well as clinical staff, necessary for developing patient safety programs in the altered clinical settings, allowing one to comprehend the link between CAMPK, PSPN, and JCI accreditation. As Palestinian hospitals have just recently begun to participate in international joint commission accreditation, accrediting processes require regular reviews and modifications. Administrators need to take a more active role in quality improvement initiatives in order to close any gaps that exist and ensure that clinical practice and accreditation criteria are in line with patient safety objectives.
