Declarations
:
: This study used hospital-level data aggregated from individual-level responses from the SOPS Hospital Survey 2.0. Informed consent language was included at the beginning of the SOPS web survey, along with Westat’s IRB contract information, but we received a waiver of written informed consent for the web survey. The informed consent language was “The survey is voluntary, but your feedback will help your hospital identify areas for patient safety and workplace safety improvement. If you do not wish to answer a question, you may leave it blank. Westat will keep your individual responses to this survey confidential. Only group results will be reported.”
: Not applicable.
: CG from AHRQ reviewed and revised the manuscript. CG has a competing interest because she is employed by AHRQ which owns and creates the survey that is the data source for this manuscript. BH, KZ, JS, and NY do not have any competing interests.
