Aim/purpose: Moving health care upstream is founded on transformational leadership lest providing medicine only is not the solution to all patient problems. This upstream approach to health occurs through motivating and guiding people involved in taking care of patients’ health, and requires sharing fresh thoughts. Transformation ensures coordination for increasing the readiness and ability of health care providers to collaborate beyond traditional medical care. At the same time, the increased performance of nurses is directed through the locus of control (LC) to manage ever-changing demands at the hospital. This study aims at examining the relationship of transformational leadership and patient safety with nurses’ locus of control as moderator and decision-making capacity of nurses as mediator. Further, the mediated-moderations are also examined. Additionally, the mean differences prevailing in public and private sector hospitals are also assessed.
