Introduction
Education sessions for nurses who work with patients who have central lines about the necessity to prevent infections can effectively reduce the rate of central line infections in three months. In the current project, the evaluation of learning needs and the existing research gaps is developed. Nurses should have a chance to improve their knowledge and study from the best experts in the field (Aloush & Alsaraireh, 2018; Dumyati et al., 2014). Their awareness of guidelines and standards for following hand hygiene and aseptic techniques plays an important role in predicting infections in patients (Burnett, 2018; Dumyati et al., 2014; Myatra, 2019). However, poor nurse engagement, ineffective leadership, and various options for nurses create additional barriers to understanding nurses’ roles and participating in educational programs (Ha et al., 2019; Owings et al., 2018). Therefore, it is important to find facilitators to ensure that nurses successfully pass all the sessions and prepare to cooperate with patients and colleagues to prevent infections and exchange experiences.
Main body
Conclusion
This analysis helps understand why nurses must be involved in new education programs, what barriers and facilitators exist in the context, and what aspects of nursing care should be improved. The increase in infections among patients with central lines is hard to ignore, and many hospitals are interested in improving the current rates. Nurses should have good leaders to complete their functions and roles. Finally, creating a single standardized guideline for preventing central line infections can be the major facilitator in addressing the gaps in nursing education and engagement.
