Abstract

This study aimed to assess hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccination rates among healthcare professionals and understand their knowledge about HBV transmission. Conducted in a healthcare setting, the research employed survey methods to collect data on vaccination status and awareness levels. Alarmingly, only 25% of healthcare workers were found to be vaccinated against HBV, highlighting a significant gap in protection. Additionally, a considerable lack of awareness regarding HBV transmission was observed among the participants. These findings underscore the urgent need for targeted vaccination campaigns and educational initiatives within primary healthcare environments. The study advocates for mandatory HBV vaccination as a condition of employment for healthcare workers, coupled with ongoing infection prevention and control training. Further research is recommended to explore the prevalence of HBV infection among healthcare professionals in primary care settings and to assess the broader implications for public health. This study serves as a critical call to action for healthcare systems to prioritize HBV vaccination and education, thereby safeguarding both healthcare providers and patients from HBV infection risks. Highlights : Low Vaccination Rates: Only 25% of healthcare workers are vaccinated against HBV, indicating a critical need for improved vaccination coverage in healthcare settings. Knowledge Deficit: There is a significant lack of awareness among healthcare professionals about HBV transmission, necessitating educational programs. Policy Implications: The study advocates for mandatory HBV vaccination for healthcare workers, emphasizing the importance of infection control measures for public health safety. Keywords : Hepatitis B Vaccination, Healthcare Workers, Infection Prevention, Public Health, Vaccination Awareness

Abstract

Nurses are critical in enhancing the quality of care and patient safety due to their commitment to caring for patients 24 hours a day and their interaction with families and other health professionals. The role of gender in the interprofessional team is more complex and warrants further investigation, even though it has been increasingly studied at the level of the individual healthcare provider. In this study, we examined sex differences in patient safety culture practices among nurses. This study was conducted using a cross-sectional design at a general public hospital in Karawang, West Java, Indonesia. The hospital survey on patient safety culture (HSPSC) was used. A chi-square test and an independent t-test were used to determine whether there were any differences in patient safety culture practice between the sexes. A total of 75 males and 145 females agreed to join this study. The mean age of female and male participants was 34.21 ± 14.07 and 36.29 ± 12.51 years old, respectively. Age, marital status, and working position were significantly different between males and females (p < 0.05). Females reported to have a higher overall score of patient safety culture practices than males (3.65 (SD = 1.12 vs. 3.11 (SD = 1.43), p-value = 0.001). According to the patient safety culture practice domain, teamwork (4.21 (SD = 1.35) vs. 3.78 (SD = 1.76), p-value = 0.001), response to error (3.56 (SD = 1.93) vs. 3.31 (SD = 1.93), p-value = 0.001), and communication openness (3.881.56 vs. 2.35 (SD = 0.92), p-value = 0.001) were higher among female than male. Nurses must be trained, and professional communication must be improved as a means of ensuring better patient safety. Patient safety cultures vary widely across hospitals, units, and countries, as evidenced by the growing number of studies that have looked at this issue in depth.
