    Background: Preventing errors associated with medication administration is achievable through nurses' adherence to correct principles. Objective: This study aims to investigate the relationship between nurses' adherence to medication administration principles and their attitudes toward patient safety. Method: This study adopts a descriptive and relationship-seeking research design. A total of 310 nurses who met the inclusion criteria participated in the study. Data collection tools included the Nurse Information Form, Medication Administration Principles Adherence Form, and Patient Safety Attitude Scale. Results: Among the participating nurses, 32.9% (n = 102) reported experiencing a medication administration error, and 77.7% (n = 241) witnessed such an error. The study revealed a statistically significant positive relationship between nurses' adherence to medication administration principles and their attitudes toward patient safety (p < 0.001). Conclusions: This study underscores the importance of nurses' adherence to medication administration principles in ensuring patient safety.
