The purpose of this study is to identify the behavioral determinants of patient safety practices among nurses at Dr. Moewardi Hospital, Indonesia. Subjects and Method: This study was a cross-sectional study conducted at Dr. Moewardi Hospital in January 2025. The sample consisted of 200 inpatient nurses selected by a simple random sampling method. The independent variables in this study were work attitude, work stress, communication, teamwork, and work environment. The dependent variable was the patient safety practice behavior. Data collection was conducted using a questionnaire. Data analysis was conducted using path analysis. Results: The behavior of patient safety practice in inpatient nurses was directly influenced by positive work attitudes (b=0.22; 95% CI= 0.08 to 0.36; p= 0.002), low work stress (b= 0.16; 95% CI= 0.02 to 0.30; p= 0.022), and effective communication (b= 0.24; 95% CI= 0.11 to 0.36; p<0.001). The patient safety practice behavior among nurses through work attitudes was indirectly influenced by work stress and teamwork. The patient safety practice behavior among nurses through work stress is indirectly influenced by teamwork and the work environment.
