3 Best Tips for Proper Hand Washing Among Medical Professionals
"Cleanliness is next to godliness." The origin of this expression is unclear, though it could have originated from ancient Hebrew or Egyptian writings. The first English version seems to have originated from Francis Bacon. In any case, the meaning of the expression is clear: keeping your body clean is vital.
Cleanliness is important in any workplace; however, it is crucial in certain occupations. For instance, cleanliness is a top priority in the medical industry. Bacteria can become a life and death issue. Fortunately, the personnel can use a wide variety of methods, including the wearing of scrubs, such as cheap landau scrubs. Keeping your hands clean as a bean is another method to prevent the transferring of bacteria. Here are some tips for effective hand washing:
1. Understand the importance of hand washing
According to some experts, washing our hands is the most effective way to prevent diseases from spreading. That is due to the link between bacteria and diseases. Diseases spread when we contact fluids from people's bodies. For instance, consider someone with the common cold. After blowing his nose, he could inadvertently place mucous on a doorknob. The virus can survive there for a while, and thus be transmitted to another person who touches the doorknob. By simply washing our hands frequently and being conscientious about what we touch, we can reduce the transmission of bacteria.
In addition to the common cold, failing to wash your hands throughout the day, can increase the likelihood of transmitting numerous infections, including the common cold, digestive viruses, flu, hepatitis A, and skin infections.
2. Wash at the proper time
How often should you wash your hands? Experts recommend that people wash them at least 10 times daily. However, those in the medical profession should wash them even more frequently. For instance, here are some activities after which you should scrub away:
- before you eat
- after you eat
- before touching your nose, mouth, or eyes
- after contacting fluids from bodies
- after contacting items that have contacted fluids from bodies
- after using the restroom
You might be shocked at how infrequently people wash their hands. After using the restroom, only about two-thirds of Americans wash their hands!
3. Wash your hands by using the proper technique
Washing your hands properly does not involve rinsing your hands quickly. Instead, you should use certain techniques. Use warm, soapy water and wash them for roughly 15-30 seconds. If you do not feel like using a stopwatch, wash your hands while singing the "ABC song." Then rinse your hands thoroughly. Experts have determined that the length of time you wash your hands, is much more important than the type of soap that you use (i.e. Antibacterial Soap).
Remember that bacteria exist even when we cannot see them. If you are in the medical field, wash your hands at the right time, and in the right way. Your increased contact with humans increases the chance of bacteria transmission. If you wear a scrub, then make sure to scrub!
