Hand Hygiene in the work place - best practice guide

Hand Hygiene has never been more important or more widely appreciated. Everyone is now understanding the reality and threat posed by hand to surface transmission of bacteria and viruses. There will be lasting cultural change as we emerge from the global pandemic caused by COVID19 but will continually need to educate on and encourage effective hand hygiene. The information presented in this guide is based on the latest UK Government guidance and other agencies. It concentrates purely on hand hygiene but recognises that effective hand hygiene can only be achieved in conjunction with cleaning and disinfection of surfaces.
