Hand Washing PDF

The 12 step hand washing process begins with wetting hands with hot water and applying soap. Hands are rubbed together with friction for 20 seconds, singing "Monster Mash" as a guide for time. Fingernails are cleaned using the other hand or a nail brush. Hands are then rinsed and dried using a paper towel to turn off the faucet and open the door without recontaminating clean hands.
