“…There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups (nursing staff and students) (P = 0.08). This is consistent with the results of most studies, including studies by Fashafsheh et al (18), Darawad et al (19), Ghalya (20), Sharif et al (21), Alexandria et al (22), and AL Rawajfah et al 23, but is not consistent with studies by Yaghoubi et al, Ghanbari et al (7,24), and Shinde et al that declared the performance of nursing staff was lower than the performance of students. The reasons for the inconsistency and poorer performance of the staff in these studies were factors such as considerable work stress, poor knowledge, lack of training, having too much workload, and avoiding hand contact with cleaners and disinfectants.…”

Background: Considering the fundamental role of nursing staff and students in patient care and nosocomial infection control. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the performance of students and nursing staff in nosocomial infection control in Behbahan city in 2019. Methods: This is a descriptive-analytical study. The participants were 217 nursing staff and students of three hospitals in Behbahan who were selected by random sampling. The data gathering tool was a questionnaire that consisted of demographic information and five common nursing procedures. The performance measurement criterion was based on fulfilling or not fulfilling standards. After gathering the data, they were analyzed by statistical tests, including ANOVA and Pearson correlation in SPSS 16 software. Results: The participants were 157 nursing staff and 60 nursing students. In line with the main objective of the study, the results showed that the average performance scores of students (152.9 ± 12.5) and nursing staff (15.5 ± 13.2) were at a good level, and there was no statistically significant difference between the performance of students and nursing staff (P = 0.08). Also, there was no statistically significant difference between the nursing staff of three hospitals (P = 0.76). However, there was a statistically significant difference between the performance scores of staff in different wards (P < 0.001). The CCU and NICU personnel outperformed other wards’ personnel. Conclusions: Based on these findings, it can be concluded that nurses at different levels of education, with different demographic characteristics, and different work environments have a good performance in controlling infections. This is a strong point in the nursing profession.

“…Promotion of the knowledge, attitude, and behavior of social members concerning different aspects of COVID-19 can help to take effective steps to develop correct healthy behaviors and increase public adherence to medical advice to prevent the spread of the disease (Ajilore et al 2017 ; Yaghubi et al 2014 ; Zhong et al 2020 ). Experiences of the prevalence of SARS in 2003 and MERS in 2012 show that inadequate knowledge and negative attitudes toward the disease would induce a feeling of fear of the disease and labeling of patients in society.…”

Background:Health-care acquired infections are significant given the risks and costs they impose. All previous studies indicate a poor level of knowledge and performance among the nurses in hospital infections; as such, educating nurses can play an important role in infection control. This study aimed at evaluating the effects of the health belief model (HBM) in making nurses adopting health-care behaviors needed to control nosocomial infections (Nis).Materials and Methods:The participants of the study were 135 nurses from two hospitals in Mashhad, Iran. A self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data. The questionnaire consisted of seven parts. The intervention group received four 45 min educational programs, both in individual and collective forms. After a 2-month interval, a post-test was conducted to see whether any difference has been resulted.Results:There was a significant relationship between knowledge (P = 0.001), perceived threat (P = 0.004), perceived benefits (P = 0.001), and practices (P = 0.001) in comparing to control and experimental groups after intervention. For the experimental and control groups, the most frequent cues to action at the preintervention stage were, respectively, related to the period of studying at university and in-service classes.Conclusion:According to this study, HBM-based education can increase knowledge, perceived threat, and perceived benefits of nurses. Additionally, it can reduce perceived barriers and improve the control of NIs among nurses.
