    As obvious and rational as it might now be, the act of washing hands to prevent infections wasn’t so apparent up until the late 1800s. Back when doctors and medical students would move from dissecting a corpse straight to performing surgery on a patient, what is now known as infectious diseases were attributed to various reasons, and as every human being is in someway distinct from others, it was suggested that the cause of every death was too (Semmelweis seal., n.d.). In the 1840’s, and due to an increasing rate of puerperal fever (also known as childbed fever) amongst new mothers, which is a condition that occurs when a woman experiences an infection related to giving birth (Ataman A., n.d.). A Hungarian doctor named Ignaz Semmelweis discovered that mortalities from puerperal fever can be remarkably reduced by the simple act of washing hands.…

    Hand Hygiene is considered “the most important measure for preventing the spread of pathogens in health- care settings” because it reduces the spread of pathogenic organisms to patients and health- care workers. Studies in the mid 1800s showed that hospital acquired nosocomial infections and diseases were spread by the hands of healthcare workers. In the 1980s, the first national guidelines for hand washing were published, and many other guidelines followed. The US public health service released a training video in 1961 that demonstrated recommended hand washing techniques for healthcare workers. The video recommended washing hands with soap and water for one to two minutes before and after coming in contact with a patient.…

    Not washing your hands after going to the bathroom is my biggest pet peeve! Public bathrooms have thousands of germs all around, especially in the stall. It is extremely unsanitary and can take a negative impact on a person’s health to not wash away germs. By washing I mean using soap, not just water because the bubbles in the soap are what trap the germs for them to wash away. One time in the 3rd grade I did not wash my hands for about a week and a half because I wanted to see what would happen, and sure enough I got the flu.…

    Effectiveness of Hand Hygienerevealed out of 75 identified opportunities to offer patient HH, it was offered on only one occasion. More than half of patients reported they were not offered HH, despite nurses’ acknowledgment of patient HH in controlling and preventing HAIs (Ardizzone, Smolowitz, Kline, Thom, & Larson, 2013). HCPs in an out-patient clinic who stated they frequently avoided touching their face touched it at the same rate as those who reported only occasionally or rarely touching their face (Elder et al., 2014). Although direct observation is expensive and time consuming, it is the gold standard to monitor HH adherence (WHO, 2009). Direct observation typically evaluates simply whether HH was performed, rather than HH quality or effectiveness.…
