Topic Importance Knowledge, attitude, and practice play an important role in the prevention and control of virus outbreaks. Nursing is an essential component of medical care, and nurses’ knowledge about the disease directly affects healthcare effectiveness and patient outcomes. During an outbreak, nurses play a positive role in improving the recovery rate, reducing the length of the hospital stay and mortality, and preventing in-hospital infection (Jin et al., 2020). Knowledge of the disease significantly influences nursing practice, with incorrect attitudes and insufficient knowledge directly increasing the risk of infection (Zhang et al., 2020). Understanding the level of nurses’ awareness and preparedness towards COVID-19 allows health authorities to implement relevant measures directed at the prevention and control of infection in healthcare facilities. Question In COVID-19 patients, how does the nurses’ good knowledge and positive attitude influence patient outcomes, compared to insufficient knowledge and negative attitude during the pandemic? Background Information The COVID-19 pandemic has affected all groups of the population all over the world, with health care providers being at the most risk of contracting and transmitting the infection. At the initial stages of the disease outbreak, health care professionals working at the front line were often infected due to negligence and lack of knowledge (Tamang et al., 2020). The infection rates in most countries were reduced by increasing the level of knowledge and implementing protective and prevention measures, which also resulted in a more positive attitude of nurses and doctors towards COVID-19 patients. In order to control and prevent infection, education and training programs for healthcare workers need to be developed that address the most important issues encountered in their practice during the pandemic. Topic Significance to Nursing Practice Working with COVID-19 patients is challenging for nurses due to the novelty of the disease, lack of information, fear of infection, and the psychological trauma resulting from patient deaths. Decreasing the level of stress and anxiety among nurses is important for improving both the quality of care and their own wellbeing. The findings show that good knowledge of the disease and proper implementation of infection control measures are significant predictors of the nurses fulfilling their professional care obligations (Nashwan et al., 2020). If the factors that affect nurses’ knowledge, attitude, and practice towards COVID-19 can be determined promptly and properly, relevant training and policies can be developed that prioritize their protection and reduce the level of stress. Purpose of the Project The purpose of the project is to identify the problems in nurses’ knowledge and attitude towards COVID-19 patients based on cross-sectional survey results.
