Objectives: The study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of teaching programme on Osteoporosis among Hospital Aides
Materials and methods: Evaluative approach was employed with pre experimental one group pre test post test design. The sample consisted of 80 Hospital Aides selected using purposive sampling technique.
Results: The mean post-test knowledge score (x2 = 31.19) was higher than the mean pre-test knowledge score (x1= 17.15). The post-test score ranged from 24-37 and that of pre-test ranged from 7-23. The mean difference between post-test and pre-test knowledge score was highly significant (t79=30.43) (t79=1.66 at 0.05 level). There was no significant association between pre-test knowledge scores and selected variable like age (x2 (2)=1.384), family income (x2 (2)=2.043), years of experience (x2 (1)=3.152), and education (x2 (1=0.075) at P > 0.05.
Conclusion: Planned Teaching Programme was effective in enhancing the knowledge regarding Osteoporosis among Hospital Aides.

Successful treatment of patients with end-stage renal failure requires, in addition to dialysis, strict control of dietary, fluid and medication intake. Patient education provides a vehicle for increasing the self-management of chronic illness and promoting modifications of life styles. The purpose of the study was to find the effectiveness of Individual Education Intervention on attitude level and compliance level regarding therapeutic regimen. An evaluatory approach with one group pre-test post-test design is adopted for the study. Statistical analysis of data revealed that Individual Education Intervention regarding therapeutic regimen was effective in improving the attitude (t=11.47, P <0.05) and compliance (t=5.67, P <0.05)Keywords
