Résumé
It is pointed out that nursing personnel at the clinical forefront are a high-risk group for occupational injuries. The risk factors include: lack of knowledge on occupational injuries and their prevention in elementary and continuing education; various factors affecting nursing personnel's physical health, such as drug-dissolving facilities for the special purpose of chemotherapy, imperfect clean work station or relatively hermetical drug-dissolving environment ; increase of diseases that could be easily contracted in the hospital, such as hepatitis B, with the stabbing of nursing personnel by sharp medical instruments infected by blood or saliva being the main route of their occupational infection. The disadvantageous impact of occupation on their health puts nursing personnel under great psychological pressure. In order to safeguard their physical and mental health, it is imperative to put knowledge on hospital infection, occupational injuries and health maintenance on the curriculum of medical colleges and universities, reinforce nursing personnel's training in occupational safety, and take measures to prevent occupational injuries, such as using disposable gloves when dispensing medicines in chemotherapeutic drug centers.
