Tiivistelmä
Knowledge of infection prevention among seafaring crews in cargo ships has seemed to be lacking. This can, at worst, pose a health risk to both the crew and other people as well. The purpose of this thesis was to develop an infection prevention guide in Finnish for cargo ship crews who travel short journeys.
The objectives are to lessen infections and their spread on cargo ships by raising awareness among seafaring crew of infection prevention on cargo ships. This was done by making a guide for the crew so that they can use the guide to help them protect themselves and others from infections. The guide should also help to prevent the spread of infections.
The guide is in Finnish. It is nine pages long and has basic information about different types of infections. The main part of the guide is about how infections spread and how they can be prevented in a cargo ship environment.
