ABSTRACT
This study investigates personal hygiene practices among mothers in Nwangele LGA, Imo State, Nigeria, aiming to understand the factors influencing these practices and their health implications. A quantitative cross-sectional design was employed, with data collected through structured questionnaires and interviews. Findings reveal that while mothers generally report adherence to recommended hygiene practices such as handwashing and oral hygiene, there are gaps in behavior implementation, particularly regarding child handwashing and waste disposal. Cultural beliefs were found to influence hygiene practices to some extent, while economic constraints had a lesser impact. Perceived health implications of poor hygiene practices were acknowledged, with a notable proportion of mothers reporting experiencing health issues due to inadequate hygiene. These findings underscore the importance of targeted interventions to improve hygiene behaviors among mothers in Nwangele LGA, ultimately contributing to better health outcomes for themselves and their families.
