Knowledge, attitudes, and readiness about critical antimicrobial resistant organisms among healthcare workers at colonial war memorial hospital in Fiji: a pre and post intervention study
Our data revealed high levels of staff awareness and knowledge about AMR and IPC. However, readiness for outbreak response and treatment of critical AMR infections requires more attention. Improving AMR prevention and containment in CWMH will likely require sustained and multisectoral interventions with strong administrative commitment.
