Handwashing, HAI’s
and Reimbursement
CHALLENGE:
How can we ensure that
we design and build the
best possible solution for
our clinical team partners?
Is this the best we can do?
SOLUTION:
Or this?
Place all hand washing compliance
and infection control accessories on
the rail.
Studied and published by the Center
for Health Design in 2012: the
evidence-based recommendation is
to create a standard directional flow
with easy access to sink and hand
washing accessories at the room
entry by “...placing the hand
washing accessories on an
equipment rail allows adjustment in
the system without creating damage
to the wall and potential home for
Of course not! pathogens.”
Yet it’s the standard of
practice.
