Project Overview

Hand hygiene is an integral part of a health care professional’s job, and the single most important infection control procedure in preventing contamination. This design project is focused on achieving a high percent of compliance with hand decontamination when moving from computer keyboard to the patient. The device should expedite the process of hand decontamination while keeping the health care professional and patient safe. It should also be affordable and able to assimilate in to any clinical setting.
