Purpose: The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of a Structured Teaching Programme on the knowledge of Nursing Officers regarding the care of Central Venous Access in a selected hospital in Kashmir. Method: A pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was employed. The sample consisted of 60 Nursing Officers, selected using simple proportionate stratified random sampling. Data were gathered through a Structured Knowledge Questionnaire. Results: The data were analyzed and interpreted using both descriptive and inferential statistics with SPSS V-20, and all inferences were tested at a 0.05 significance level. The mean pre-test knowledge score was 24.38, which increased to 36.98 in the post-test (p<0.001). However, no significant association was found between professional qualification (p=0.65), years of work experience (p=0.95), work area experience (p=0.16), or in-service education (p=0.31) and the pre-test knowledge score, as all p-values were greater than 0.05. Conclusion: Structured teaching program improved the knowledge of Nursing officers regarding care of central venous access.
