Objective: to identify the knowledge of nurses who work in the Family Health Strategy regarding patient safety. Method: exploratory, descriptive qualitative research, carried out with 20 nurses from the Family Health Strategy in a municipality in Paraná. Data collection was carried out from July to December 2021 with semi-structured interviews. Data was categorized and analyzed using the Iramuteq software. Results: nurses reported difficulties in the work process that potentially jeopardize patient safety. The following factors contribute to the patient safety concerns: shortage of professiomals, work overload, communication failures, teamwork and training process, impact of the pandemic against COVID-19, adverse events and reporting culture. Final considerations: the study demonstrated the fragility of nurses in relation to patient safety in Primary Health Care and the need for the topic to be widely discussed among all components of the Family Health Strategy teams.
