Abstract : HAIs are problems that often occur in hospitals. HAIs have a negative impact on the quality of hospital services, so it is needed to prevent infection. One effort to prevent infection is by applying bundle care (VAP, UTI, IAD, and IDO). This study is aimed to see the effectiveness of bundle care management on the professional competence of nurses in managing HAIs. The study was conducted at two hospitals in the city of Padang. The research time span starts from December 2017 to July 2018. The research design was Quasy Experimental Pre-Post Test With Control Group, the sample was 80 nurses with purposive sampling technique. 40 respondents were the intervention group and 40 respondents were the control group. The instruments in this study were questionnaires, observation sheets, and modules. The statistical test used is paired t test. The results showed that there were significant differences in knowledge, attitudes and skills before and after being given bundle care training in the intervention group and the control group (p <0.05). The suggestion of this research is to investigate further with a different design that is randomized controlled trial. And examine the effectiveness and audit compliance of each element of the bundle care.
