"Urinary tract infection is the most common nosocomial infection in hospitals and long-term care facilities. It can result from contaminated bed-sheets, floors, and bedside chairs. Three-quarters of all such infections are related to urethral catheters (Bridger, 1997). Prevention of urinary tract infections is not just a professional duty of the nurse, but also is a legal, ethical, and moral duty. "
