| Abstract: | A study was conducted to develop and assess the effectiveness of an Educational Package on Safe handling of high-risk medications in terms of knowledge, attitude and practice of staff nurses in a selected hospital, New Delhi. The objectives of the study were: to develop an Educational Package on safe handling of high-risk medications in a selected hospital, New Delhi, to assess the effectiveness of the Educational Package among staff nurses on safe handling of high-risk medications in terms of Knowledge, attitude and practice in a selected hospital, New Delhi, to find the association between the pre-test knowledge, attitude and practice of the staff nurses on safe handling of high-risk medications with selected demographic variables in a selected hospital, New Delhi, to find the correlation between the post-test knowledge and practice scores of the staff nurses on safe handling of high-risk medications in a selected hospital, New Delhi, to find the correlation between the post-test knowledge and attitude scores of the staff nurses on safe handling of high-risk medications in a selected hospital, New Delhi. After obtaining the ethical clearance from the ethical committee and formal administrative permission, data collection was done from the Hospital, New Delhi. A total of 50 staffs were selected by using convenient sampling technique. A structured knowledge questionnaire, attitude scale and an observational checklist was used to assess the demographic profile, their knowledge, attitude and practice on safe handling of high-risk medication. The practice level was assessed by using observational method on each high-risk medication administration at the patient bed side in both pre-test and post-test assessment of the staff nurses, an average of 5-10 minutes has taken for the observation of high-risk medication administration by each staff nurse in the intensive care unit of selected hospital. After assessing these parameters, a planned teaching program and a standard operating procedure was given to the selected staffs. After administration, the post-test knowledge, attitude and practice level were assessed. Finding revealed that the mean pre-test knowledge level was 11.64 and standard deviation was 4.5. The mean post-test knowledge level was 17 and standard deviation was 4.1. The mean pre-test attitude level was 45.04 and standard deviation was 7.51. The mean post-test attitude level was 49.84 and standard deviation was 0.4. The mean post-test attitude level (49.84) with t value 4.57 was significant at 0.05 level of significance, the mean pre-test practice level was 14.86 and standard deviation was 1.06. The mean post-test practice level was 16.08 and standard deviation was 0.94. The mean post-test practice level (16.08) with t- value 9.4 was significant at 0.05 level of significance, which indicates that the educational package on safe handling of high-risk medications was effective in improving knowledge, attitude and practice among staff nurses. There was no association between the demographic profile and knowledge, attitude and practice level of staff nurses. The knowledge and practice level were positively and weakly correlated to each other (r=0.29). The knowledge and attitude level were positively and weakly correlated to each other (r=0.37). |
