World Hand Hygiene Day (May 5)


Across the globe, hand hygiene saves millions of lives every year when performed at the right moments during health care delivery. Clean care is a sign of respect to those who seek care, and it protects health and other workers who provide that care.

In celebration of World Hand Hygiene Day on Friday, May 5, we invite all staff to take this Hand Hygiene quiz.

Staff who complete the quiz will be entered to win one of six prizes on behalf of the Hand Hygiene Committee and the Department of Infection Prevention and Control.
