Abstract:
Objective To reveal the impact of behavioral education on the ability of occupational risk protection in dental clinic cleaners.
Methods The abilities of occupational risk protection in 67 dental clinic cleaners were evaluated using observation scale before and after a behavioral education program.
Results Both the abilities of occupational risk protection and cleaning in the dental clinic cleaners were substantially improved after the education program, the ratio of the excellent performers to the total subjects rose from 0.0% to 7.5%(P< 0.01) after the program, the good performers rose from 28.4% to 67.2%(P< 0.01), and the bad performers fell from 71.6% to 25.4%(P< 0.01). Gender did not impact the effect of the education program. Age was inversely proportional to the effect of the education program, while education level was positively to the effect of the education program. On-site demonstration method showed better results than lecture method(P< 0.01).
Conclusion Behavioral education, especially on-site demonstration, is crucial to improve the ability of occupational risk protection and cleaning in dental clinic cleaners.
