Objective: To assess the knowledge of nursing students regarding the prevention and control of healthcare-associated infections. Method: A scoping review was conducted using the methods set forth by Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI). The following databases were searched: PubMed, CINAHL Plus with Full Text, Nursing & Allied Health Collection, Cochrane Plus Collection, and MedicLatina (via EBSCOhost). Inclusion criteria were studies written in Portuguese, English, or Spanish and published in the last 5 years. The studies were extracted to the Qatar Computing Research Institute platform (Rayyan QCRI). Results: We identified 11 studies that demonstrated the need to involve facilitators in the teaching/ learning process to raise awareness of training strategies for the prevention and control of healthcare-associated infections. Conclusion: Structured programs that include training and skill development for students need to be implemented. Descriptors: Students, Nursing; Universal Precautions; Infection Control.
