Review of the policy and procedure titled Hand Hygiene last reviewed 1/10/2023 read, Standard: Hand
washing should be performed between procedures with resident/guest(s) based upon the principle that all
blood, body fluids, secretions, excretions (except sweat), non-intact skin, and mucus membranes may
contain transmissible infectious agents. II. Hand Sanitizer: If hands are not visibly soiled, use an
alcohol-based hand sanitizer for routinely decontaminating hands in all clinical situations other than those
listed under Handwashing above. III. Hand Hygiene: Hand hygiene continues to be the primary means of
preventing the transmission of infection. The following is a list of some situations that require hand hygiene.
When hands are visibly soiled (Hand washing with soap and water); before and after direct resident/guest
contact (for which hand hygiene is indicated by acceptable professional practice). Before or after changing
a dressing. Upon and after coming in contact with a resident/guest(s) intact skin (e.g. when taking a pulse
or blood pressure, and lifting a resident/guest(s).
