Introduction: Patient safety, a state of absence of serious injuries and also reduction of risks caused by health care, is the minimum acceptable level. Teaching this concept is a worldwide requirement for its inclusion in the nursing curriculum, as it improves quality and increases patient safety.

The first method is a comparative study with George Brady's method, which includes four stages of description, interpretation, comparison, and the top 5 nursing bachelor's programs in the world were examined based on the 2021 Shanghai ranking criteria and Iran's nursing bachelor's curriculum. The second step is a study with a qualitative approach, and data collection was done by semi-structured interview method with 12 nursing faculty members and continued until saturation was reached, then it was analyzed by conventional content analysis method.
Conclusion: The findings showed that teaching the concept of patient safety in Iran's educational curriculum has a good place in some concepts compared to the top universities in the world, but not much attention has been paid to teaching teamwork in the concept of patient safety. The results of the analysis of the interview with the nursing professors showed that the implemented curriculum can lead to learning outcomes for the students, although it is better to teach the concept of patient safety in the nursing bachelor's curriculum as an independent lesson in a longitudinal theme manner and emphasize all dimensions. be the fourfold health.
