Method: Pre experimental study design was adopted using 100 nurses. Structured teaching program was provided to the participants working in chemotherapy wards on the second day. Post-test was taken after14 days of administering structured teaching program.

Results: The findings of the study suggested nurses have average knowledge level regarding intravenous chemotherapy. 90% of nurses had average knowledge score (8-15), 5% of nurses had poor knowledge score and 5% had good knowledge score. In post-test 100% of nurses had good knowledge score (16-22). This indicates that the structured teaching program was effective. There was no association of selected demographic variables with knowledge level.

Conclusion: The oncology nurses need to be provided with more of in-service programs with emphasis on increase in their knowledge and skills.
