Purpose: This study conducted to determine the effect of in-service education on nurses’ preference for the ventrogluteal site in intramuscular injection implementation. Method and materials: In this intervention study, the sample comprised 45 clinic nurses, where intramuscular injection practice is frequently applied. In-service education was conducted with regards to applying intramuscular injection to the ventrogluteal site. In the content of the planned education, the transmission of theoretical information on the subject, the demonstration on the manikin and video were included. Then, the nurses carried out the intramuscular injection implementation on the manikin under the supervision of the researchers. The data were collected at 2014 through the use of the “Nurses’ VG Site Injection Preference Status Form”. The data collection form was applied before the in-service education and two months after the in-service education. Results: The results showed that 71.11% of the nurses did not receive education on intramuscular injection implementation in the ventrogluteal site in basic nursing education. In basic nursing education, 84.44% of the nurses used the dorsogluteal site and 22.22% the ventrogluteal site for intramuscular injection. The number of intramuscular injection implementations of the nurses in the ventrogluteal site was increased from 2.18 to 9.04 after the in-service education (p = 0.001). The nurses stated that, they felt more comfortable during ventrogluteal injection implementation, after the in-service education, Conclusion: After the in-service education of the nurses, it was determined that the number of IMI implementations in the ventrogluteal site increased.
