A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 360 patients in two tertiary general hospitals in Korea. The final dataset consisted of 341 patient responses. A questionnaire was developed to collect information concerning patients' safety-related behaviors, care experiences, and the occurrence of safety events. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed.
