Hospital-acquired infections continue to pose significant challenges to patient safety, quality care, and healthcare outcomes. As frontline caregivers, nurses play a crucial role in preventing, identifying, and managing infections within clinical settings. Hospital Infection Control Practice: A Nursing Perspective has been developed with the aim of strengthening the understanding of infection prevention principles and supporting nurses in applying evidence-based practices in their daily routines.
This book highlights core concepts such as hand hygiene, aseptic techniques, sterilization, waste management, isolation precautions, environmental sanitation, and surveillance of hospital-acquired infections. It emphasizes practical approaches, critical thinking, and the importance of adherence to standard protocols to ensure safe and effective patient care.
By integrating current guidelines, real-time practices, and the nursing viewpoint, this work aspires to enhance professional competence and foster a culture of safety within healthcare institutions. It is hoped that this book will serve as a useful resource for nursing students, educators, and practicing nurses committed to improving infection control outcomes.
