Quality of treatment and patient safety are unquestionably two separate goals for the world’s finest healthcare systems [1,2,3]. 
In the Sultanate of Oman, these goals remain at the top of the agenda for healthcare authorities and policymakers [4]. 
In order to implement a quality assurance plan, Oman’s Ministry of Health (MOH) established the Department of Quality and Patient Safety in regional hospitals in 2007 [5]. 
In 2015, it also implemented the Patient Safety Friendly Hospital Initiative (PSFHI) to foster an integrated and inclusive healthcare system [6]. 
Such initiatives have resulted in significant improvements in healthcare outcomes, such as a 72 percent reduction in mortality rates for children under the age of five from 1990 to 2013 and a 55 percent reduction in maternal mortality rates from 1990 to 2013 [5, 7].

 

Although the World Health Organization (WHO) recognized Oman’s healthcare system as one of the top ten in the world in 2012 [8], a recent Report of Quality and Patient Safety (RQPS) revealed a drop in patient safety and quality of care culture among healthcare professionals (HCPs) [9]. 
The report recommended for a comprehensive assessment of care quality and patient safety that included both HCPs’ (as service providers) and patients’ views (as service users). 
HCPs often focus on long-term and sustainable solutions while managing service and delivery costs, according to the report [10]. 
From the standpoint of healthcare practitioners, their core abilities and wider technical excellence typically play a vital role in the overall classification of quality of care and patient safety [3, 11,12,13].

 

Patients, on the other hand, place a premium on immediate gratification [14]. 
Their viewpoints are usually shaped by the overall healthcare system, the type of practice, and the personal and clinical skills of the care providers [13, 15, 16]. 
This explains why international organizations such as the Council of Europe (CoE) [17], the World Health Organization (WHO) [3], and the Institute of Medicine (IOM) of the United States (US) [18] all emphasize that patients’ perspectives on quality care are important in addition to providers’ perspectives in order to strike the right balance between the two and provide additional insight into areas where change is needed. 
As a result, this study is part of a larger project that aims to (1) consolidate patients’ and HCPs’ (nurses and physicians) perspectives on quality of care and patient safety at two tertiary hospitals in Oman [19] and (2) identify the participant characteristics that are most associated with quality of care and patient safety. 
The findings of this study will provide useful and complementary information for enhancing overall healthcare delivery standards.
