MMB Compass Health Newsletter – Handwashing

Our skin is the largest organ of the body and it is exposed to dirt and microorganisms.  Illnesses like influenza, food poisoning and other healthcare associated infections which are passed on from person-to-person are preventable and can be reduced by good hand hygiene. Proper handwashing is the most important way to prevent and control the spread of disease. 

Good hand hygiene is one of the World Health Organisation’s core components to prevent illnesses.  Let us help spread awareness on the proper way of washing our hands and when hand washing should be done. 

Let’s help “FIGHT INFECTION…IT’S IN YOUR HANDS.”
