dc.description.resumoBackground: Patient Safety is recognized as a global public health problem. Thus, Brazil launched in 2013 the National Patient Safety Program (NPSP). Objectives: To evaluate the knowledge and attitudes of health professionals of a public teaching hospital in Bahia State, Brazil. Methods: Cross-sectional study carried out between December 2015 and March 2016. Participants comprised all health professionals (doctors, nurses, and nurses’ aides or licensed practical nurses) who provide care to patients and had worked at the hospital for two months or longer at the time of the study. The Survey on Patient Safety Culture (HSOPSC) tool and a pretested questionnaire about the knowledge of the NPSP were used for data collection. Variables comprised socio-demographic data of health professionals and questions about the knowledge on NPSP. Descriptive analysis was performed by estimating absolute and relative frequencies of selected variables. The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Federal University of Minas Gerais. Results: Of the total of 327 respondents, 74.1% were female, with an average age of 38.7 years old (SD = 11.8). Roughly 44.0% were nurses’ aides or licensed practical nurses, 28.4% were nurses and 17.1% were doctors. Most health professionals worked at the Emergency Unit (25.0%) and the majority (51.4%) reported having post-graduate education level. Approximately 78% (225/287) of the professionals reported not be aware of the NPSP, 94.5% did not know the six protocols of the NPSP and 90.1% answered had not received any training about NPSP in the hospital. Most professionals (95.8%) responded they would like to know the NPSP. Conclusions: The development and publication of public health policy does not imply that it will be established in health care institutions. Since it is a public hospital that promotes education and training of new health professionals, the NPSP should be prioritized by managers and coordinators accompanied by a broad participation of all social actors.pt_BR
