The purpose of this study is to determine strategies for preventing phlebitis and urinary tract infections caused catheter at the Royal Prima General Hospital in 2019. This type of research uses a Qualitative method by conducting in- depth interviews and observations; the study was conducted in August 2019. The populations of this study were 10 nurses in the inpatient room at the Royal Prima General Hospital in July until August 2019. The results showed that nurses hospitalized at Medan Royal Prima Hospital in 2019 had prevented phlebitis and urinary tract infections caused by catheters by installing infusions and catheters in accordance with operational standards at Royal Prima Hospital. It is expected that Royal Prima General Hospital will conduct training on prevention and control of nosocomial infections so that all nurses are able and understand about the prevention of phlebitis and urinary tract infections caused by catheters and conduct monitoring and evaluation in all treatment units.

INTRODUCTION Nosocomial infection or Health Care-Associated Infection (HCAI) is an infection that occurs as long as the patient is served in a health facility, where there are no signs of infection or symptoms of the patient being incubated at the time of hospital admission (WHO 2015). According to WHO, HAIs are infections acquired by patients during treatment procedures and medical actions in health services that occur ≥ 48 hours of treatment and ≤ 30 days after leaving a health facility. Based on the French National Prevalence Survey, the locations where nosocomial infections often occur include the urinary tract, airway, surgical wounds, skin and tissue, ears, nose and throat, eyes, catheter insertion locations and infusion locations (WHO, 2011). Law Number 44 of 2009 concerning Hospitals states that hospitals are required to apply patient safety standards. The Patient Safety Program is to ensure patient safety in the hospital by preventing errors in the delivery of health services. Hospitals are required to provide quality and transparent health services to the public, especially for ensuring patient safety, so that hospitals need to improve the quality of service, especially in the prevention and control of nosocomial infections (Ministry of Health, 2010).
