Assess knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to green nursing and explore perceptions of staff nurses around sustainable healthcare practices.
Mixed-methods study in Narayana Medical College Hospital
Cross-sectional survey of 537 staff nurses using a structured questionnaire
Focus group discussions with 30 purposively selected nurses
58.7% of nurses had inadequate knowledge; 66.9% had positive attitudes; only 27.6% reported consistent green practices.
Adequate knowledge (AOR = 2.41; 95% CI: 1.68–3.46) and positive attitude (AOR = 3.12; 95% CI: 2.05–4.74) significantly associated with green practice adoption (p < 0.001).
Prior sustainability training (AOR = 1.89; 95% CI: 1.27–2.81) and longer clinical experience (AOR = 1.56; 95% CI: 1.03–2.36) independently associated with green nursing behaviours.
