Hand Hygiene
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends:
-
Wet your hands with clean, running water (warm or cold), turn off the tap, and apply soap.
-
Lather your hands by rubbing them together with the soap. Lather the backs of your hands, between your fingers, and under your nails.
-
Scrub your hands for at least 20 seconds. Need a timer? Hum the “Happy Birthday” song from beginning to end twice.
-
Rinse your hands well under clean, running water.
-
Dry your hands using a clean towel or air dry them.
-
Lotions and creams can prevent and decrease skin dryness that happens from cleaning your hands
-
Use only hand lotions approved by your healthcare facility because they won’t interfere with hand sanitizing products
