Cleanliness and Infections in Hospital
There are containers of alcohol gel around the ARU on entrance and around the department for disinfecting of hands.
Hand washing. The most common means by which infection is transmitted is by hand; therefore hand washing is a very basic, yet vital infection control measure. Alcohol hand gel is kept at the entrance of the unit for all visitors to use before and after attending appointments. For hygienic hand disinfection apply 3ml (3 shots) to physically clean hands for 30 seconds ensuring all areas are covered, until dry.
