Please join this annual campaign, sponsored by the CDC-facilitated Clean Hands Coalition. Raise awareness of the dangers of poor hand hygiene. Check out a variety of ideas to improve the away-from-home wellness factor in everyone’s life.
Clean hands are the cure to the spread of colds, the flu, and those illnesses acquired in our schools, offices, restaurants, nursing homes, and hospitals.
For those preparing or serving food, print and post the International Clean Hands Week poster attachment to this blog as a reminder to all.
For the back-to-schoolers consider taking The Pledge of Caring with your schoolmates and posting it in your classroom. Let this year’s celebration of International Clean Hands Week mark the start of having all in your household wash their hands each time they arrive home. Clean hands. Save lives.
