AHRQ Surveys on Patient Safety Culture™ (SOPS™) hospital survey template

Is your hospital safe? This standard survey template developed by the experts at the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) gives healthcare professionals the opportunity to weigh in on safety issues, errors, and reporting processes in their hospital.

The survey takes only 10-15 minutes to take, and can help identify critical weak points in a hospital’s culture of safety.

When you have your results, you can filter by focus area or employee tenure to examine differences between departments and track safety standards across the hospital. You can also add specialized questions if you have areas of specific interest. The survey covers communication, perception of policy, and overall hospital culture.
