The data were collected from nurses using the “Questionnaire Form” and the "Scale of Compliance with Isolation Precautions” (SCIP) using a sealed envelope method. The data were analyzed using t-tests and ANOVA to explore relationships between the variables. Ethical approval, institutional permission, and informed consent from the participants were obtained before the study.
Results: According to the nurses' self-assessments, while the pre-pandemic SCIP mean scores 66.43±7.04, the post-pandemic scores increased significantly to 70.44±5.59. Age, gender, education level, experience, clinical setting, shift type, and overtime status were found to have significant effects on adherence to isolation precautions (p<0.05). 86.5% of the nurses received training on isolation precautions in pandemic, and 58.4% reported experiencing problems with compliance.
