Manajemen Kepatuhan Penerapan 5 Moment Cuci Tangan di ruang rawat Inap Penyakit dalam

Abstract

Hand hygiene is an important effort in preventing the transmission of infection in healthcare facilities. The Five Moments for Hand Hygiene concept introduced by the World Health Organization serves as a guideline for healthcare workers in performing handwashing at the right time when providing services to patients. The implementation of the five moments for handwashing is very important, especially in inpatient wards of internal medicine due to the high interaction between healthcare workers and patients that has the potential to increase the risk of nosocomial infections. This study aims to describe the management of compliance with the implementation of the five moments for handwashing among nursing staff in inpatient wards of internal medicine. The study used a descriptive method with a quantitative approach. The study population was all nurses in the inpatient wards of internal medicine using a total sampling technique, resulting in 15 respondents. Data collection was carried out using a questionnaire compiled based on the concept of the five moments for hand hygiene. The data were then analyzed univariately and presented in the form of a frequency distribution table. The results showed that most respondents were on average around their late twenties, predominantly female, had a relatively early work experience, and most had a nursing professional education. The implementation of the five moments for handwashing showed that most respondents were in the good category, although there were still inconsistencies in certain moments. These results indicate that handwashing compliance is quite good, but still needs to be improved through education, supervision, and support from hospital management to ensure more consistent hand hygiene practices.
