    • IPC was not widely practiced across the studied wards.
    • Instances of poor practice were identified even in wards where IPC was more prevalent.
    • Facilitating factors included nurses' personal qualities, shared understanding of care goals, adequate staffing and skill mix, and effective leadership.

    Conclusions:

    • The implementation of IPC faces challenges and inconsistencies in practice.
    • Nurse qualities, team collaboration, staffing, and leadership are key factors influencing IPC.
    • Further research and targeted interventions are needed to promote consistent and effective IPC.
