Aims: This study was carried out to determine the effect of hand washing training given to the primary and secondary school students with hearing impairment on their hand washing attitudes. Methodology: The study was semi-experimental and had a pre test-post test layout with single group. It was carried out with 16 students attending Uzun Mehmet Hearing Impaired School affiliated to Zonguldak Provincial Directorate of National Education between 3rd March, 2017 and 31st May, 2017. Data in this study were collected by using Student Information Form and Hand Washing Skills Assessment List. Results: Mean age of the children was 13,05 ± 5,04 (12-16) years old, 43,8% (n = 7) were males, 56,2% (n=9) were females, and 100% (n = 16) were hearing-impaired. When looking at the results of the findings related to hand hygiene of the hearing-impaired children, it was determined that 56,2% (n=9) had a training for hand hygiene previously, 43.8% (n=7) did not have any training about hand hygiene and 100% had no health problems with their hands. Hearing-impaired children were given a training called "Hand Hygiene" to enhance their hand hygiene attitudes and it was found out that there was a statistically significant difference between total score averages in pre treatment (pre test) and second measurement just after the training (post test) (p=0.000). Conclusions: It was concluded that the training which was given to the hearing-impaired children was effective in their development of proper hand washing skills. It is thought that the presence of child health nurse in the schools of hearing-impaired children will contribute to the acquisition of healthy living attitudes and the development of hand hygiene skills and habits. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
