Abstract

About 5 million children gre exposed to malnutrition due to deprivation from breastfeeding. Most false information leading to problems in lactation arise from the inappropriate practice and caregiving of health care personnel. This study was conducted to study the knowledge, attitude and practice of rooming-in of the infant and mother by the nursing and midwifery staff of hospital in Mashad, Iran. In this analytical descriptive study, 150 nurses and midwives from Mashad hospitals were randomly selected through cluster and stratified sampling. Relevant data were collected through observation and questionnaires. Findings revealed that the nurses’ and midwives knowledge about RI were good (22.1=3.9); their attitude was agreeable (22.8=4); nurses had poor practice (20.22=10.02) while midwives had medium tanking practice (29.7=10.8). No significant correlation was found between knowledge of RI and variables such as age, and type of hospital while it indicated a significant relationship with occupation (p=0.0001), degree (p=0.0001), year of graduation (p=0.001) and experience (p=0.005). No significant relationship was discovered to exist between attitude and variables such as occupation, age, degree, work experience and type of the hospital but it indicated a significant relationship with the subjects’ year of graduation (p=0.025). Also, nurses practice of RI did not correlate with occupation, age, year of graduation, work experience and shifts; however, it was discovered to significantly correlate with degree (p=0.005) and type of hospitals (p=0.0001). Midwives’ practice of RI did not correlate with age, degree, work experience and shifts of work but it had significant relationships with year of graduation (p=0.014) and type of hospitals (p=0.0001). Breastfeeding workshops, college training plans and clinical instruction give rise to the knowledge, attitude and practice of RI. No significant correlation were found between nurses’ and midwives’ knowledge and attitude (p=0.0001, p=0.3), between nurses attitude and practice of RI (p=0.045 , r=0.2) and between knowledge and practice of RI in nurses and midwives. Based on the findings and low rate of practice of RI by the subjects of the study, more training plans are suggested to be implemented to enhance the quality of practice and to motivate nurses and midwives.
