Simple Hygiene Tips
Following hygiene routines is always important, especially when we care for someone that is more vulnerable to illnesses and can more easily become infected. Here are a few simple tips in how to avoid cross infection during care routines.
- Practice thorough hand hygiene before and after care routines
- Wear disposable gloves / apron if possible and wash / disinfect hands before and after use
- Discard apron / gloves after every care instance
- Avoid wearing jewellery on your hands and wrists (e.g. rings, watches) to avoid any contamination
- Wear short sleeves, to make it easier to follow proper hand hygiene
- Clean any spills or dirt up straightaway using disinfectant
- Do regular cleaning of areas in the house where indirect transmission could occur: door handles, toilet system, handrails etc
