摘要: Antimicrobial stewardship programs are important preventative strategies to reduce hospital-acquired infection, typically involving medical and pharmacy staff. Because nurses pivotal in administering medication prescribed by staff filled staff, we assessed nursing attitudes antimicrobial knowledge before after an education intervention that focused on involvement management. This study supports as a means of improving antibiotic stewardship.
