Aims: Blood transfusion is considered one of the most efficacious medical interventions for saving lives. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of an instructional program on nurses' practices toward blood transfusion procedures.
Materials & Methods: A quasi-experimental randomized was conducted from May 30, 2022, to October 13, 2023, in nurses working in two leading teaching hospitals (Imam Al-Sadiq and Al-Hilla) in Babylon governorate. the questionnaire that was based on previous research, modified by adding or removing some paragraphs, was used by the researcher to evaluate the level of practice possessed by nurses. The final draft of the tool is composed of two parts; nurses' socio-demographic data and nurses' practice about blood transfusion. The practice checklist of respondents to each question was scored from 1 to 3.
Findings: The practice of the intervention group (1.83±0.17) was significantly higher than the control group (1.40±0.15) in the post-tests (t=25.05; df=49; p<0.001). There were no significant relationships between nurses' practices and age, educational level, working ward, gender, nursing experience, and recent working ward experience in the intervention group. 
Conclusion: The planned counseling program on nurses' practices toward blood transfusion is effective and changes the level of practice of nurses.
