It is important we share knowledge about hand hygiene to reduce the spread of harmful germs, and to keep patients and healthcare workers safe.
The Commission’s theme for WHHD 2025 is ‘Gloves at the right time. Hand hygiene all the time. A sustainable path to better hand hygiene!’
New resources
Our updated resources will help you to spread the word on social media, through your newsletters and by engaging with colleagues using our WHHD quiz and training presentation.
Our fact sheet on Sustainable glove use for healthcare workers highlights the impact of inappropriate glove use, while the new 5 easy steps for glove use poster has a practical checklist on when to use gloves.
These resources make it easy to learn more, raise awareness in your workplace and share messages online.
Get behind WHHD 2025 efforts in your health service!
Use the Commission’s resources on our WHHD webpage and our 2025 Campaign page.
