How Does Hand Hygiene Reduce Infection Risk?

Proper hand hygiene is the single most effective way to reduce the risk of infections. Nurses should wash their hands with soap and water or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer before and after patient contact, after removing gloves, and after touching any potentially contaminated surfaces. Hand hygiene significantly decreases the transmission of pathogens.
