Safer hand hygiene toolkit
(Safer hand hygiene toolkit) Infection prevention and control in health care are of primary importance. Antimicrobials remain one of the most important lines of defense in the prevention of infection. However, some commonly used antimicrobials in hand hygiene products found in the health care setting, such as hand soaps, can pose hazards for employees and the environment and may increase antimicrobial resistance.
