Abstract
The descriptive comparative study compared the knowledge level of student nurses and staff nurses regarding nosocomial infection. 120 samples were selected using stratified random sampling technique 40 in each strata i.e., III year GNM students, IV B.Sc nursing students, GNM staff nurses and B.Sc staff nurses. A structured knowledge questionnaire was used to assess the knowledge level regarding nosocomial infection. The result showed that the mean knowledge score of B.Sc staff nurses and IV year B.Sc Nursing students were statistically higher than the GNM staff nurses and III GNM students respectively. The knowledge score of staff nurses were higher than the student nurses. Significant association between the knowledge with special education programme attended by the samples was identified.
