Evaluation of Multimodal Strategies Implementation; Education and Training on Compliance in The Implementation of The Infection Prevention and Control Program: An Integrative Review

Abstract

Backgrounds; Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) is crucial for protecting patients, healthcare workers, visitors, and the surrounding community from healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). The prevalence of HAIs remains high globally, particularly in Southeast Asia. Effective IPC programs are essential to reduce HAIs and improve healthcare quality and patient safety; Objectives; This integrative review aims to identify and evaluate the literature on the implementation of multimodal strategies, specifically education and training, to improve compliance with IPC programs. Methods; This integrative review aims to identify and evaluate the literature on the implementation of multimodal strategies, specifically education and training, to improve compliance with IPC programs. Results; Out of 910 articles initially identified, 17 met the eligibility criteria, and 7 were included in the final review. The studies highlighted the importance of educational interventions, regular training, monitoring, and feedback to enhance compliance with IPC protocols. Key strategies included hands-on training, simulation-based education, and continuous professional development programs. Conclusions; Implementing multimodal strategies, particularly focusing on education and training, significantly improves compliance with IPC programs. Ongoing education, practical training, and regular evaluations are critical components for sustaining high standards of infection control in healthcare settings.
