Abstract
Students are susceptible to a number of risks of illness and accidents during the professional learning process. This study had as objective to assess the level of knowledge of biosecurity protection measures of students at an occupational therapy course. Using the field research method, data were collected by means of a questionnaire on biosecurity, means of protection and immunization. The sample consisted of 62 students. We obtained the following results: 64 % knew the term ‘biosecurity’; 43.55 % reported hand hygiene as a means of protection; 37.1 % used personal protective equipment (PPE), and only 16.13 % reported immunization as a means of protection. With this study, it became evident that adhesion fell short of the measures necessary to protect the student, and the need for the inclusion of the biosafety topic in the professional training process.
