N2  - Patient safety culture is crucial for minimizing avoidable harm in healthcare  settings. Despite global advancements, errors and adverse events remain prevalent,  particularly in complex environments like hospitals. This study aimed to evaluate the  patient safety culture among healthcare professionals in private hospitals and identify  influencing factors. Specifically, it sought to determine the level of patient safety culture  and explore factors such as age, education, working experience in healthcare, and  professional position that may impact it. A cross-sectional study was conducted at a  private hospital in Pahang, Malaysia, using the Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture  (HSOPSC). A sample of 40 healthcare professionals participated, and data was analyzed  using descriptive and inferential statistics with SPSS. The overall patient safety culture  score was 67.12%, reflecting a moderately positive perception. Strengths were noted in  management support (83%) and communication about errors (81.32%), while leadership  support (53.33%) and handoffs (50.67%) required improvement. Educational  background significantly influenced safety culture, with diploma holders scoring higher  than degree holders. Other factors, such as age, working experience in healthcare, and  professional position, showed trends but lacked statistical significance. While the overall  patient safety culture is positive, there is a need for enhanced leadership involvement and  improved communication during transitions of care. Open communication, non-punitive  error reporting, and tailored interventions considering educational disparities are essential  to further optimizing the safety culture in private healthcare settings
