Purpose: The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of infection control knowledge and nursing workenvironment on infection control performance among general hospital nurses.
Methods: A total of 138 nurses from fourgeneral hospitals located in G and P cities participated in this descriptive study. The collected data were analyzed usingt-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and multiple regression.
Results: The average mean score was21.41±1.92 points out of 25 for infection control knowledge, 2.53±0.33 points out of 4 for nursing work environment, and4.62±0.40 points out of 5 for infection control performance. In the final analysis, the variables that had the greatestinfluence on infection control performance were the nursing work environment (β=.32, p<.001), working department(β=.19, p=.014), and knowledge (β=.19, p=.016).
Conclusion: This study showed that nurses with a better nursing workenvironment, employment in general department, and more infection control knowledge delivered superior infectioncontrol performance. Therefore, to improve infection control performance, it is necessary to enhance the nursingenvironment and develop practical education programs for augmenting infection control knowledge.
