Abstract

Infection control is a crucial aspect of nursing practice, especially in specialized units like burn units where patients are more susceptible to infections. This study aims to assess the knowledge of nurses working in burn units towards infection control. A sample of nurses at the master's level will be surveyed to gather data on their knowledge, practices, and attitudes towards infection control. The findings will be analyzed to identify any gaps in knowledge or areas for improvement. This study will contribute to the body of knowledge on infection control in burn units and inform future training and education programs for nurses in this setting.
