The World Health Organization (WHO) has stressed the importance of good hand hygiene in preventing healthcare-associated infections. WHO suggests the most important aspect is “cleaning your hands at the right time and in the right way,” according to an article on the Remi Network website.
Analyzing the workflow of the healthcare system, WHO points to the following key moments: before patient contact, before aseptic task, after body fluid exposure risk, after patient contact and after contact with patient surroundings.
The layout of a healthcare facility can affect the accessibility of dispenser stations and the regular practice of proper hand hygiene.
In fact, optimizing dispenser placement can result in a 50-per-cent increase in use, the article said.
