A Factors Affecting Performance of Multidrug-Resistant Organisms Infection Control in Long-term Care Hospitals Nurses
This study aimed to identify factors influencing multidrug-resistantorganism(MDROs) infection control performance among nurses in long-term carehospitals and provide basic data for intervention strategies. The study included 152 nurses working at seven long-term care hospitals in G Metropolitan City. Data wereanalyzed using independent t-tests, one-way ANOVA, Pearson’s correlationcoefficient, KR-20, and regression analysis. The results showed that isolation roomoperation, perceived benefits, and cues to action significantly affected infectioncontrol performance, explaining 29% of the variance. These findings suggest thatoperating isolation rooms, enhancing awareness of the benefits of infection control,and reinforcing cues to action are effective strategies for improving MDROsinfection control practices among nurses. Therefore, administrators shouldincorporate elements that strengthen perceived benefits and cues to action intoMDROs infection control interventions and focus on curbing the spread of MDROsin long-term care hospitals through tsailored education and systematic support.
