This poster clearly illustrates the importance of hand hygiene before contact with the patient or items around them. Before clean or aseptic procedures, e.g before giving medications. After exposure to body fluids, which includes cleaning up bodily fluids, and lastly, after touching a patient or items around them.
This poster is used in some homes where a resident has been transferred back to the facility after a procedure, and the HCP needs to do follow up e.g surgery.

I chose the Four Moments of Hand Hygiene poster because it is very clear and easy to understand for nurses working in a busy environment. The poster clearly shows when hand hygiene should be performed before and after patient contact and procedures. It is helpful because it reminds nurses to protect both patients and themselves from the spread of infection. This poster would be effective in my workplace because it is simple, visual, and easy to follow during daily nursing care.

I chose this poster not only because it’s clear and easy to follow, it also has pertinent information on when and why these moment occur, but also includes a 5th moment. The 5th moment in this poster is – after touching patient surroundings. This moment is often included in the 4th moment and is often missed.

I chose this poster because it clearly illustrates hand hygiene goals. It is very simple to understand and shows the four moments of hand hygiene using different colours, which helps guide the viewer in a logical sequence. It also ties all the moments of hand hygiene that a health care worker performs together by numbering them to show that hand hygiene must occur before, during, and after care. The final message connects the visuals to a system-wide safety goal.

I chose this image because it is minimal, background is clear of clutter and you are able to focus immediately on the message or instructions. The instructions are also in a step by step arrangement in a clockwise direction which also makes it easy to follow
