Tools used for data collection were Pre-designed Questionnaire contained on nurses' characteristics, Attitude Rating Scale and Nurses' knowledge, also used Observational Checklist and BRADEN scale. The subject composed of 45 nurses and 90 orthopedic patients. Mean score of total knowledge pre-intervention was 6.83±3.1, while at the post was 9.95±2.1. Also, a mean score of total practice pre-intervention was 7.11±2.6, while at the post was 11.83±3.4, and, a mean score of total attitude pre-intervention was 5.02±2.8, while at the post was 7.82±1.9. Mean score of BRADEN scale at pre-intervention was 12.81±3.04, while at the post was 13.45±1.99. Application bundle skin care had a positive effect on nurses' knowledge, practice and attitude related skincare for orthopedic patients.
