Psychological safety and confidence in speaking up about safety concerns are essential characteristics of a culture of safety. This qualitative metasynthesis reviewed 15 studies to explore nurses’ experiences of speaking up. The analysis identified barriers to speaking up, such as hierarchical structures and poor work environment, as well as factors supporting speaking up, such as interprofessional responsibility and a supportive atmosphere.
