How to Properly Wash Your Hands

With the new wave of COVID-19 spreading through multiple states of Australia we thought it would be a good time to re-emphasise the importance of hand hygiene. Until the population is vaccinated, hand hygiene is an important tool that we need to use to lower the risk of spreading this disease. Hand hygiene is not only when using washrooms but throughout the day. It is of greatest importance after being in public spaces and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing. If we all do this we will reduce the spread of germs and viruses that cause diseases such as COVID-19.

The diagram below shows the best practices when it comes to washing your hands. Remember that it should take you at least 20 seconds to clean your hands. Following the WHO recommendations below, it should take closer to 40-60 seconds.

How to Wash Your Hands

After washing your hands you may apply a hand sanitiser as an added level of protection in case any areas of your hand were missed.

To be able to effectively manage your hand hygiene, the facilities to do so must be functional and maintained. This includes making sure your soap and hand sanitiser dispensers are topped up regularly. Because wet hands pick up more germs than dry hands, it is also important to make sure your paper towel is always stocked, or hand dryers are functioning.
