Hospital-acquired infections negatively impact patient outcomes, length of stay, and the economy. Health care systems must find ways to decrease the spread of infection and the development of infection with the use of isolation precautions in an acute care setting. All staff members must be aware of ways to decrease or prevent the spread of infection by the appropriate use of isolation precautions. This article describes a successful program that improved the use of isolation precautions among nursing personnel through the implementation of an educational intervention and behavioral contract.
医院获得性感染会对患者的治疗结果、住院时间和经济状况产生负面影响。医疗保健系统必须找到方法，在急性护理环境中通过使用隔离预防措施来减少感染的传播和感染的发生。所有工作人员都必须了解通过适当使用隔离预防措施来减少或预防感染传播的方法。本文介绍了一个成功的项目，该项目通过实施教育干预和行为契约，提高了护理人员对隔离预防措施的使用。
