Improvement of hand hygiene
It is important for health and hygiene workers to properly disinfect their hands to prevent infections and maintain a safe environment. Hand disinfection helps to prevent the spread of microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses, significantly aiding in the prevention of infectious diseases. Particularly, disinfecting hands before contact with patients or contaminated environments can reduce cross-infection. Therefore, hand disinfection for health and hygiene workers is used for infection prevention.
Apply 5ml of this medication to wet hands and wash for 30 seconds, then rinse thoroughly with water and dry completely.
