It’s National Handwashing Awareness Week, so what better time to remind everyone about the importance of hand hygiene to help prevent the spread of infection?  The American Nurses Association/Association for Professionals in Infection Control (ANA/APIC) have a page dedicated to everything you need to know about hand hygiene. It includes videos and a long list of resources. Handwashing is an incredibly simple task that can make a huge difference in the spread of infectious diseases. Share the ANA/APIC information with your colleagues and patients and find opportunities to work hand hygiene education into your daily practice.
