Hi Angelica, hand hygiene should be routinely carried out after activities. Hand wash with antimicrobial soap or alcohol based hand wash, whatever suits you. The waterless, alcohol based dispensers are practical and easy to use. However, if hands are visibly soiled, soap and water is recommended. Caution should be taken when using alcohol based hand wash; if clients have cuts or irritating skin it may get worse. Best wishes!
