Results: The knowledge scores according to general characteristics were significantly associated with sex, military rank, type of position. The practice scores according to general characteristics were significantly associated with total working experience. The results of the correlation analysis between the variables, knowledge and practice of standard precautions of infection control in nursing officer were found to be significant in this study (r=.46, p=.032).
