Summary: This study reports on nurses' perceptions of patient safety culture (PSC) in primary care during the COVID-19 pandemic. Nurses evaluated teamwork and staff training positively, but had negative views on work pressure and pace, as well as patient care tracking. Limited care coordination and continuity resulted in patient hospitalizations and care fragmentation. Regular assessment of PSC can help address weaknesses and improve patient safety in primary care.
