One way germs easily spread among a group living together is through the hands. So it is important to wash one's hand frequently and properly. We teach the 7 Steps Of Hand Hygiene, view examples on the internet and then go to the sink and practice this essential good health habit. And we emphasize the patience needed to do this most effectively. Here are the 7 Steps:

1. Rub your palms together.
2. Rub the back of each hand.
3. Rub both your hands while interlocking your fingers.
4. Rub the back of your fingers.
5. Rub the tips of your fingers.
6. Rub your thumbs and the ends of your wrists.
7. Rinse both hands properly with water.
