Nurse involvement in antimicrobial stewardship programs is insufficient, which limits the programs' effectiveness. A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of training programs on nurses' perception and practice of antimicrobial stewardship, in order to embed it in practice.

A specifically validated and designed instrument was utilized to evaluate perception and practice before, after, and 2 months follow-up the training sessions.Results: The difference between the pre, post, and 2 months follow-up tests was highly significant for the dimensions of knowledge, perception, and practice (P < .01). Also, nurses reported a lack of knowledge, lack of training, high workload as barriers of AMS. Nurses suggested ways to overcome barriers such as physician and manager support, in-service training every 6 months, and saving time for training and education.Conclusions: An educational intervention improved perception and practice among nurses related to antimi-crobial stewardship and easily embedded it in practice (c) 2022 Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology, Inc.
