    Objetivo: avaliar a cultura de segurança do paciente na perspectiva da equipe de enfermagem. Métodos: delineamento transversal, tipo survey, realizado com 221 profissionais de enfermagem do Hospital Universitário. Foi utilizado o instrumento Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture. Foram realizados o teste de Kolmogorov-Smirnov, a correlação de Spearman e o coeficiente alpha de Cronbach. Resultados: a cultura de segurança do paciente é moderadamente desenvolvida, o trabalho em equipe dentro das unidades foi área de força (75,5%) e a resposta não punitiva aos erros constituiu área de melhoria (47,0%). Verificou-se que quanto maior a impressão de inexistência de problemas e adequação dos sistemas implantados, melhor foi a nota atribuída para o hospital. Conclusão: a cultura de segurança do paciente está em processo de desenvolvimento, a dimensão com mais respostas positivas foi o trabalho em equipe dentro das unidades e, a com menos, a resposta não punitiva aos erros.

    Objective: to evaluate the patient safety culture from the perspective of the nursing team. Methods: cross-sectional design, survey-type inquiry performed with 221 nursing professionals from a University Hospital. The instrument used was the Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, the Spearman’s correlation coefficient and the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient were used in the analyses. Results: the patient safety culture has been moderately developed; teamwork within units corresponded to a strong area (75.5%) and the nonpunitive response to errors corresponded to an area for improvement (47.0%). It was observed that the greater the impression of nonexistence of problems and adequacy of the implanted systems, the better the rating assigned to the hospital. Conclusion: patient safety culture is in the process of development; the dimension with more positive answers was teamwork within units and, the one with less positive answers was nonpunitive response to errors.
