Intervention model: SINGLE_GROUP
Intervention model description: It is planned to give a care-oriented applied training program to intensive care nurses in groups of 13-15 people for 2 hours. The training content includes evidence-based practice recommendations for intensive and critical care, hand hygiene, hygiene practices in patients with special needs, and prevention and control of common HAIs. In the first stage of the training, practical training will be given by the intensive care coordinator and infection control nurse on the application model. In the second stage, patient care practices of a care team consisting of an intensive care nurse and care support staff will be observed. The training will be conducted interactively with narration, demonstration and question and answer techniques.
Primary purpose: HEALTH_SERVICES_RESEARCH

Brief summary: It was aimed to evaluate the effect of care-oriented practical training on the intensive and critical care competencies of nurses, the hand hygiene compliance rate of nurses and care support staff, and HAI indicators.

Detailed description: Does care-oriented practical training increase nurses\&#39;s intensive and critical care competencies? Does care-oriented practical training increase the hand hygiene compliance rate of nurses and care support staff? Does care-oriented practical training reduce HAI indicators in intensive care units?
