The right way to wash your hands.

The right way to wash your hands.
  • Water First: Wet hands with clean, running water (warm or cold) and apply soap.
  • Lather Up: Rub hands together with the soap, ensuring to scrub the back of hands, between fingers, and under nails.
  • Scrub for 20 Seconds: This is about the time it takes to hum the "Happy Birthday" song twice.
  • Rinse Well: Use clean, running water to wash away the soap and any dirt or germs.
  • Dry Properly: Dry hands using a clean towel or air dry them, as germs can be transferred more easily to and from wet hands. 

Usage Tips: 

  • Replace towels every 1-2 days in humid climates to prevent bacterial growth.
  • Always have a backup in case of unexpected guests or if one is in the wash.
