The overall study found that inadequate IPC practice was reported among SWs as well as by IPC experts due to poor knowledge of IPC trend and individual behaviors and working environment. Thus, the study advised that hospitals have to develop and establish IPC implementation guidelines in order to solve the concerns among these groups; national IPC office should follow its implementation across health care settings particularly at public hospitals.
