The tool used for the study was structured interview schedule and attitude five point liker scale before and after structured teaching programme. The data gathered were analysed by descriptive and inferential statistics.
Results
There is significant difference between pre-test and post-test knowledge score (‘t‘value = 41.3). The mean score of pre-test and post-test knowledge is 5.36 and 17.
