Do You Wash Your Hands Properly?

Introduction to Hand Hygiene

Proper hand washing is one of the most effective ways to prevent the spread of illness and disease.

Many people believe they wash their hands correctly, but studies show that most individuals don’t spend enough time or use proper technique when they wash their hands. This is especially true for people who still use toilet paper.

Combined with modern bathroom hygiene solutions, like bidet sprayers, these practices form a complete approach to personal cleanliness.

Essential Hand-Washing Techniques

If you follow these simple steps you will be assured of the benefits from essential hand-hygiene practices:

1. Remove your rings or other jewelry.
2. Use water and wet your hands thoroughly.
3. Use a good dollop of soap and lather the soap very well.
4. Scrub your hands, between your fingers, wrists, and forearms with soap for at least 15 seconds.
5. Scrub under your nails.
6. Rinse thoroughly.
7. Dry your hands with a single use towel or air dryer.

Important: Turn off the taps with a paper towel.

Protect your hands from touching dirty surfaces as you leave the bathroom:

• Try not to touch the door handle as you leave the bathroom. Use a paper towel to open the door.
• Or try to follow someone else out.
• Use your elbow instead of your hand to touch the door.

Additional Hand-Hygiene Tips

Other hand-hygiene tips include:

• Cover cuts with bandages.
• Artificial nails and chipped nail polish have been associated with an increase in the number of bacteria on your fingernails. Be sure to clean your nails properly.
• Keep your hands away from your eyes, nose or mouth.
• Assume that contact with any human body fluids is infectious.
• Liquid soap in disposable containers is best. If using reusable containers, they should be washed and dried before refilling.
• If using a bar of soap, be sure to set it on a rack that allows water to drain or use small bars that can be changed frequently.

Complete Your Hygiene Routine

Following these simple steps will definitely improve your health and well-being. However, proper hygiene doesn’t stop with just knowing how to wash your hands correctly. Modern bathroom solutions can take your hygiene practices to the next level.
