This study uses a development method adapted from the 4D model which consists of four stages, namely: 1) define; (2) design; (3) develop; and (4) disseminate. The results shows the feasibility of creating effective and efficient patient safety goals teaching materials as an interactive learning multimedia for android mobiles. The result indicate: 1) material experts with an percentage of 83.7% which falls into category of very decent; 2) media experts with an percentage of 80% which falls into category of decent; 3) Nurses as a user with an percentage of 86.6% which falls into the very good category.
