Two tools were used in data collection; a structured interviewing questionnaire, and the compliance with standard precautions scale (CSPS). Results revealed that there was a highly statistically significant difference in all items of compliance with standard precautions scale between pretest and posttest with p value Conclusion: Application of the tele-nursing education program had a positive effect on improving the CSPS of the studied nurses as the tele-nursing appears to be a new opportunity in the COVID-19 Pandemic disaster to lessen hazard of infection.
