Required Supplies & Equipment:
· Hand Washing Supplies

1. Preparation - Cleanliness requires a daily bath and a change to clean underclothing. Use a deodorant to prevent body odor. Shave daily. Give teeth and hair proper care, everyday. Keep fingernails short and clean. Use cosmetics in moderation. Refrain from the use of heavy scents.
2. Hand Washing - In order to control cross-contamination, hands should be washed after performing cleaning duties. Before continuing on to the next area, wash your hands. Also, wash before meals and after going to the restroom.
Massage hand cleaner around the fingers, knuckles, and hands. Scrub fingernails with a brush. Keep your hands lower than your elbows when washing. Wash vigorously for two minutes. The tap water should be running during the entire process. Use medicated hand moisturizer when skin becomes dry or chapped.
3. Protect Yourself - Use the proper Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for each cleaning task you perform.
