Amaç: Bu çalışmada çocuk istismarı ve ihmalinin tanılanması aynı zamanda önlenmesinde önemli bir rolü olan hemşire ve ebelerin konuyla ilgili bilgi düzeyi ile farkındalıklarının belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır.Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma kesitsel olarak 2017-2018 yılları arasında Hatay ili Antakya ve Defne merkez ilçesinde bulunan 51 aile sağlığı merkezinde yapılmıştır. Veri toplanmasında hemşire ve ebelerin sosyodemografik özelliklerini belirleyen 20 sorudan oluşan tanıtıcı bilgi formu ve 67 sorudan oluşan “Çocuk İstismarı ve İhmalinin Belirti ve Risklerinin Tanılanmasına Yönelik Ölçek Formu’’ kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Ölçek ortalama puanları, hemşire ve ebelerin ölçek puan ortalamalarının meslek yaşamları boyunca çocuk ihmal ve istismarı vakalarıyla karşılaşma, çocuk ihmal-istismarını tanıma, hukuk hakkında bilgi sahibi olma gibi değişkenlerden etkilendiğini göstermiştir (p<0.05). Sonuç: Sonuç olarak hemşire ve ebelerin çocuk istismarı konusundaki bilgilerinin ortalamanın biraz üzerinde kaldığı görülmüştür. Bu durum sağlık profesyoneli olan hemşireler için yeterli düzeyde değildir.

Aim: In this study, it was aimed to determine the level of knowledge and awareness of nurses and midwives, who have an important role in the diagnosis and prevention of child abuse and neglect.Material and Method: The cross-sectional study was conducted in 51 family health centers located in the central district of Antakya and Defne in Hatay province between 2017-2018. In data collection, a introductory information form consisting of 20 questions determining the sociodemographic characteristics of nurses and midwives, and a " Diagnosis Scale of the Risk and Symptoms of Child Abuse and Neglect" consisting of 67 questions were used.Results: The results showed that 27.6% of the midwives and nurses who encountered cases did not report them Average scale scores showed that nurses’ and midwives’ scale mean scores were affected by the variables such as encountering cases of child neglect and child abuse throughout their professional life, recognizing child neglect-abuse, and being knowledgeable about the law (p<0.05). Conclusion: As a result, it was observed that the knowledge of nurses and midwives on child abuse was slightly above the average. This situation is not sufficient for nurses who are health professionals.
