One of the patient safety targets is the prevention of the risk of falling. Every patient who comes to the hospital certainly expects existing problems to be resolved without causing new problems such as the risk of falling, so the initial step needed is prevention based on the knowledge, attitude and compliance of nurses because nurses are health workers who interact the longest and most often with patients. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between nurses' knowledge and attitudes with compliance with the implementation of patient safety targets related to the prevention of the risk of falling at RSU GMIM Siloam Sonder. This type of research uses a quantitative research method using a cross-sectional approach and a research instrument in the form of a questionnaire. The sample in this study amounted to 96 people who were nurses at RSU GMIM Siloam Sonder. The independent variables are the knowledge and attitudes of nurses and the dependent variable is compliance with the implementation of patient safety targets related to the prevention of the risk of falling at RSU GMIM Siloam Sonder. The results of the study found that the majority of respondents had good knowledge with a total of 59 respondents (61.5%), had a positive attitude with a total of 79 respondents (82.3%), and a level of compliance with a total of 85 respondents (88.5%). This study used the Spearman Rho statistical test. The results of the Spearman Rho test for the knowledge and compliance variables p = 0.000 <α = 0.05, the correlation coefficient 0.447 means there is a significant relationship with a moderate or strong relationship level so that Ha1 is accepted and the attitude and compliance variables p = 0.000 <α = 0.05, the correlation coefficient 0.604 means there is a significant relationship with a strong relationship level so that Ha2 is accepted. So it is concluded that there is a relationship between nurses' knowledge and attitudes with compliance in implementing patient safety targets related to fall risk prevention at RSU Gmim Siloam Sonder.
