Knowledge and Associated Factors of Nursing Professionals Toward Colostomy Care at Borumeda and Dessie Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, South Wollo Zone, Northeast, Ethiopia, 2022.

Knowledge of colostomy care was not satisfactory among nurse professionals working in governmental hospitals in Dessie town. Participation in the training of colostomy care, having more than eight years of experience, providing colostomy care for more than seven patients, attending scientific colostomy meetings, and reading professional literature were significant factors associated with good knowledge of providing colostomy care. Thus, capacity-building in-service training is required to enhance the knowledge of colostomy care.
