Abstract

We conducted a survey of 1,048 healthcare workers (HCWs) at 8 Iranian hospitals regarding knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to isolation precautions. We found 75% below acceptable safety levels. Routine handwashing before and after glove use was reported by fewer than half of the HCWs.
