Dependent variable was nurse's practice to prevent nosocomial infection. Data then analyzed using correlations product moment test. Results: The results showed that, susceptibility variable, severity of infection variable and benefit variable have correlation with nosocomial infection prevention (p value=0,000<0,05). While barrier variable did not have correlation with nosocomial infection prevention (p value=0,201>0,05).
Conclusion: Variables of health belief model that can be used as determinants of nosocomial infection prevention were susceptibility, seriousness and benefits. Future studies are expected to be done in some hospitals to look at other factors such as hospital management, facilities and infrastructure, and policies that may affect the implementation of prevention and control of nosocomial infections.
