License: Licence agreement concerning inclusion of doctoral thesis in the Institutional Repository of the University of LeidenInfection Control Assessment Tool • June 3rd, 2009
Improvement of the behaviour of healthcare workers is an important aspect of infection control in healthcare. The biggest challenge is not the lack of effective precautions and evidence-based guidelines, but the fact that healthcare workers apply these measures insufficiently. Interventions to improve adherence to infection control measures should incorporate an evaluation of barriers to and facilitators of change. We investigated knowledge, attitude and behaviour toward infection control in two teaching hospitals on the island of Java by means of a questionnaire to identify problem areas, barriers and facilitators.
