Hand Hygiene Compliance

Increase compliance rates and decrease the spread of infection with products and education.
Overview
The number one defense against healthcare-acquired infections is hand hygiene. In fact, the CDC says that hand washing alone could prevent up to 20,000 patient deaths per year 1.
The biggest hand hygiene barriers we hear from customers are lack of education, behavior challenges and poor skin condition. That’s why Medline has developed a comprehensive program to help increase hand hygiene compliance. Our solution includes a product bundle with soaps, sanitizers and lotions and an educational program.
