BACKGROUND: Global pandemic outbreaks are a cause of fear. Healthcare workers
(HCWs), especially those fighting the pathogens at the front line, are at higher
risk of being infected while they treat patients. In addition, various
environmental fomites in hospitals, which may carry infectious agents, can
increase the risk of acquiring an infectious disease. AIM: In order to deliver
the best healthcare practice, it is critical that HCWs feel safe and protected
against infectious diseases. The aim of this study was to improve understanding
of HCWs' hand hygiene (HH) behaviours and perceptions of infectious diseases from
a psychological perspective. METHODS: Environmental features were observed in
three departments, and questionnaires were used to determine perceived safety
against infectious diseases among HCWs and the coping behaviours they used (e.g.
avoidance and disinfection). FINDINGS: This study found that an increase in the
number of HH stations at convenient locations would increase HH compliance and
perceived safety against infectious diseases among HCWs. In response to the
current research gap in psychological aspects associated with HH, this study
found that HCWs' coping behaviours can be predicted by their perceived likelihood
of contamination and perceived vulnerability. CONCLUSIONS: The study findings
should be interpreted with care, and further studies with more academic rigor are
needed.
