Sample: A convenient sample of 84 internship students. Tools of data collection: four tools were used to collect the necessary data: (1) Interview questionnaire for students' characteristics; (2) An observational checklist; (3) Reeda scale; (4) Visual analog scale. Results: There was a highly statistically significant difference between the total score of knowledge, and practice among internship students pre and post-test (p <0.001).
