National Handwashing Awareness Week is December 1-7!

During the COVID-19 pandemic, proper hand-washing is especially important to keep you and your family safe!

Take a few minutes to review these basic tips:

·         To start, wet your hands with warm or cold running water. Wash hands front and back, up to your wrists, between fingers and under fingernails.

·         Take at least 20 seconds to wash your hands, which is about the time it takes to sing two choruses of “Happy Birthday.”

·         Always wash hands before handling, preparing or eating food and when feeding children or older adults. Some other situations when hands need to be washed include handling raw foods, using the restroom, handling garbage or dirty dishes, and coughing or sneezing.
