Hand Hygiene Keeps the World United Safely

May 5, 2022

The importance of handwashing is stressed multiple times every year, including World Hand Hygiene Day, celebrated every May 5. This year’s theme is Unite for Safety: Clean Your Hands. The theme recognizes that a facility can enhance its safety culture by stressing handwashing among all inhabitants, and that this culture will encourage people to frequently wash their hands with soap and water.

The World Health Organizations offers numerous materials to help your facility stress the importance of proper hand hygiene, today and all year long. Download posters, social media ads, and other campaign assets.

Turn to CMM to learn methods to encourage hand hygiene in your facility to help stop the spread of disease.
