Abstract
Laboratory sample safety is one of the quality indicators in hospital. Due to lack of awareness among healthcare workers, repeated incidents of sample errors are being tracked. This study was conducted with a aim to assess the knowledge and practice of Registered Nurses regarding the laboratory sample safety measure so that lacking in the existing process could be identified and corrected. The research approach adopted for the study was descriptive in nature. Simple random sampling technique was adopted and were selected from ICUs and other hospital units. Data was collected from 30 sample subjects through a structured knowledge questionnaire and practice checklist. The analysis was done by descriptive statistics. The result shows that majority of the registered nurses 17 (53%) had good knowledge regarding laboratory sample safety measures and maximum 18 (60%) were following good practice regarding laboratory sample safety measures.
