The How's of Handwashing

  1. Wet your hands with warm running water.
  2. Add soap, then rub hands together to make a lather. Do this away from running water, so you don't wash the lather away. Wash the front and back of your hands, between fingers and under nails. Continue washing for at least 15 seconds.
  3. Rinse hands well under warm running water.
  4. Dry hands thoroughly with a clean towel.
