HAND HYGIENE PRACTICES
Purpose:
To review the importance of good
hand hygiene reducing the risks of
spreading germs by using soap
and water and/or alcohol-based
hand rubs
Hand Hygiene monitoring is
conducted randomly thru-out the
facility
Why is compliance with recommended hand hygiene
so poor?
•heavy workloads
•skin irritation caused by frequent use of soap and water
•hands don’t look dirty
•hand washing with soap & water takes too long
Many personnel don’t realize when they have germs on
their hands
By doing simple tasks, like:
•pulling patients up in bed
•taking a blood pressure or pulse
•touching the patient’s gown or bed sheets
•touching equipment like bedside rails, over-bed tables, IV pumps
