Resumen

LIMA, Inês Maria Novais Soares de et al. Family nurses’ self-perceived competencies: Control and prevention of Human Immunodeficiency Virus infection. Rev. Enf. Ref. [online]. 2023, vol.serVI, n.2, e22044.  Epub 02-Ago-2023. ISSN 0874-0283.  https://doi.org/10.12707/rvi22044.

Background:

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection is a public health issue. Family nurses play a significant role in HIV Infection Prevention and Control (IPC).

Objective:

To analyze nurses’ self-perceived competencies in HIV IPC and determine their association with training in the area.

Methodology:

Quantitative and descriptive-correlational study. The sample was selected from family nurses from the Northern Regional Health Administration who agreed to participate. A form that included the ECAPC-VIH_CSP scale was applied. Data were analyzed through descriptive and inferential statistics in IBM SPSS Statistics, version 25.0.

Results:

Nurses had an average level (M = 4.44 ± 1.24) of self-perceived competencies in HIV IPC. Nurses with specific training had higher self-perceived competence.

Conclusion:

The results show that nurses had an average level of self-perceived competencies in HIV IPC. Nurses require training to develop competencies in HIV IPC, improving the quality and safety of care.
