Abstract
A key component of contemporary healthcare is infection control management in hospitals, which aims to lower the incidence of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) and guarantee patient safety. With an emphasis on hand hygiene, the use of personal protective equipment (PPE), environmental disinfection, and surveillance procedures, this study investigates the application, difficulties, and efficacy of infection control methods in hospitals. Data from healthcare workers was gathered using a cross-sectional research approach, and it was then examined to determine areas for improvement, knowledge gaps, and compliance with infection control recommendations. The results show notable differences in compliance that are impacted by institutional regulations, personnel training, and the accessibility of resources. In order to improve infection prevention, the study emphasizes the necessity of standardized infection control procedures, ongoing staff training, and technology-driven solutions. Hospitals can lower healthcare expenses, enhance patient outcomes, and support international efforts to fight infectious illnesses by tackling these issues.
