Abstract

The objective of the study is to describe the current state of knowledge and practice of health education and determine the factors related to the knowledge and practice of health education of nurses at 7 clinical departments of Thai Nguyen Central Hospital in 2022. A cross-sectional descriptive study of 70 nurses at 7 clinical departments of Thai Nguyen Central Hospital from January to April 2022. Research results show that 58.6% nurses have good knowledge of health education skills; 52.9% of nurses have achieved practice of health education skills. Factors of age, working seniority are related to knowledge and practice of health education of nurses (p < 0.05). Nursing education and knowledge are related to health education practice (p < 0.05). We have the following conclusions: The current status of nurses' knowledge and practice of health education is still not high. Older nurses with long working experience perform better health education than younger nurses. Nurses with professional qualifications and good knowledge will perform better health education. Through this study, we recommend strengthening training to improve knowledge and skills for nurses on health education, especially young nurses.
