Hand washing and hand hygiene for Infection Control

One of the most important things you can do to help prevent and control the spread of many illnesses is to thoroughly and regularly wash your hands. Good hand hygiene will reduce the risk of spreading Coronavirus and other viruses like flu, coughs and colds as well as food poisoning and healthcare associated infections.

When do you need to wash your hands?

Your hands will carry lots of germs normally and it has always been advocated to wash hands thoroughly:

  • after coughing or sneezing into your hands
  • after visiting the toilet
  • before handling food
  • when visibly dirty

In the current climate it is now advocated to wash your hands thoroughly:

  • before leaving home
  • when arriving at your destination
  • after handling money
  • as soon as you return home
  • after handling deliveries to your home or premises

Washing your hands more regularly will help to stop coronavirus from spreading.

It is vitally important to make sure you wash your hands in the proper way. Make sure that you wash both your hands including the tips of your fingers, the palms of your hands and thumbs.
