Wash Your Hands Often

Our hands come into contact with countless surfaces throughout the day, picking up germs that can easily spread when we touch our faces, prepare food, or interact with others, causing illnesses.

🫧 20 Seconds Can Make a Difference!

🫧 20 Seconds Can Make a Difference!

Good handwashing habits are especially important for older adults, whose immune systems may be more vulnerable to infections.

Here are a few simple reminders:

  • Scrub for 20 seconds using soap and running water
  • Don't miss a spot! Clean between your fingers, under your nails, and the backs of your hands
  • Wash at key moments: Before meals, after using the restroom, and after coughing or sneezing
  • Make it fun! Hum "Happy Birthday" twice while scrubbing!

💙 Small Habits. Big Protection.
