ABSTRACT
Infection
prevention and control is both a national and international priority, with
compliance with precautions being sub-optimal. One of the reasons suggested for
poor compliance is a lack of appropriate education for health care
professionals. There is a limited body of research available which considers
infection prevention and control education for nursing students, particularly
in clinical placements and no identified research in this area in healthcare.
In this project we have studies infection control
practices in hospital and specially dental department. Dental personnel may be
exposed to a wide variety of microorganisms in the blood and saliva of patients
they treat in the dental operatory. This research was
undertaken with the overall aim of exploring and analysing the experiences and
learning needs of nursing and healthcare students in relation to infection
prevention and control in their clinical placements.
Several
themes emerged from the body of work including the nature of infection
prevention and control practice that is perceived as good or poor practice;
attitudes towards infection prevention and control; barriers and motivators to
learning about infection prevention and control; attitudes towards the
infection prevention and control nurse and barriers to reporting poor practice.
This was a detailed study which used a
standardized, structured self-administered questionnaire to survey knowledge,
attitude and practice of infection prevention and
controlat the hospital. The study enrolled 50
respondents among them 5 doctors, 20 nurse, 10 trainee
doctors and 15 house keeping staff.
