Utilizing the SEIPS model to guide hand hygiene interventions at a tertiary hospital in Ethiopia.

We aimed to apply the Systems Engineering Initiative for Patient Safety (SEIPS) model to increase effectiveness and sustainability of the World Health Organization's (WHOs) hand hygiene (HH) guidelines within healthcare systems. Our cross-sectional, mixed-methods study took place at Jimma Unive...
