Abstrakt:	Introduction: A colostomy is a surgical procedure that brings one end of the large intestine out through the abdominal wall. Approximately 100,000 people in incidence in the United States undergo operations that result in a colostomy or ileostomy each year. Objective: To assess knowledge and associated factors toward colostomy care among staff Nurses working at Dessie Town governmental hospitals, Ethiopia 2022. Methods: Institutional-based cross-sectional study design was conducted at governmental hospitals in Dessie Town from August 1, 2022 to August 25, 2022. A simple random sampling technique was deployed using a self-administered questionnaire. Descriptive statistics analyses such as frequencies, percentage, and mean were used to summarize the results. Both bivariable and multivariable logistic regressions were employed to identify factors associated with participants' knowledge of colostomy care. A p -value of <.05 and 95% confidence interval (CI) was used to declare statistical significance. Results: A total of 265 nurses participated making a response rate of 98.1%. About 57.6% (157) of the participants had good knowledge of providing colostomy care. Having a clinical experience of 4-6 years (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 2.4 95% CI: 1.186, 5.513), 6-8 years (AOR = 2.5, 95% CI: 1.981, 6.177), and >8 years (AOR = 3.3, 95% CI: 1.481, 7.394), providing colostomy care for 6-10 patients (AOR = 2.6, 95% CI: 1.186, 5.512) and 10 or more patients (AOR = 3.3, 95% CI: 1.480, 7.394), and routine reading of professional (AOR = 1.83, 95% CI: 1.062, 3.153) were significantly associated with good knowledge of colostomy care. Conclusion and Recommendation: Knowledge of colostomy care was not satisfactory among nurse professionals working in governmental hospitals in Dessie town. Participation in the training of colostomy care, having more than eight years of experience, providing colostomy care for more than seven patients, attending scientific colostomy meetings, and reading professional literature were significant factors associated with good knowledge of providing colostomy care. Thus, capacity-building in-service training is required to enhance the knowledge of colostomy care.
