Wash Your Hands Often to Stay Healthy

Washing your hands often can help keep germs and sickness at bay.  Here are five steps to washing your hands correctly.

Follow these five steps every time.

1. Wet your hands with clean, running water (warm or cold), turn off the tap, and apply soap.
2. Lather your hands by rubbing them together with the soap. Lather the backs of your hands, between your fingers, and under your nails.
3. Scrub your hands for at least 20 seconds. Need a timer? Hum the “Happy Birthday” song from beginning to end twice.
4. Rinse your hands well under clean, running water.
5. Dry your hands using a clean towel or air dry them.

In the Event you do not have water and soap available “Hand Sanitizer” is the way to go.
