Objective: Due to insufficient medical experience during the clinical practice, the students are at risk from needlestick/sharp injuries. In this study, it is aimed to determine if the nursing students are subjected to the needlestick injury/sharp injuries and what kind of steps they take against such injuries. Tool and Method: The target population of cross-sectional descriptive study consist of the nursing students (N=343) attending a university and the sampling includes 219 students who accept to participate in this research and no missing data is available in their forms. In this study, "Scale of Attitude of the Healthcare Workers toward Safe Use of Sharp-Sticking Medical Instruments", developed by Uzunbayır et al., and the questionnaire form, prepared by the researchers, were used (Cronbach's alpha=0.80). The number and percentage were given with the descriptive statistics related to all variables during the data evaluation. T test, variance analysis, Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis test were used. It is deemed that the values, less than (p) ?=0,05, are significant and there is a difference between groups.Findings: As 83.6% of participants consist of female students (n=183), 27.4% stated that they were injured 2-4 times (n=60). No statistically significant difference was found between the number of needlesrick injury/sharp injury and behavioral subdimension of scale (p=0,040). 44,7% of those, who stated that they were injured (n=98), declared that they did not reported it. Approximately 35% of those, who did not report the injury, mentioned that they did not report the injury, since they worried about the injury. The significant difference was found between the status of reporting and not reporting the injury and the behavioral sub-dimension of scale (p=0,003). It was found that 21.6% of participants (n=48) were not vaccinated of Hepatitis B vaccine, and 30.1% of those, who were vaccinated (n=60), didn't go for analysis after vaccination. When the difference in the vaccinated group was studied, the significance was found at the cognitive sub-dimension of scale (p=0,001). The statistically significance was found in the number of needlestick/sharp injury according to the classes (p=0,002).Conclusion: It is concluded that the student nurses often face with needlestick/sharp injury; they do not report it, since they don't worry about it; and the hepatitis B vaccination rate is lower. Therefore, it is suggested that the necessary training should be provided to the student nurses before clinical practices.
