Effective hygiene habits for the whole family

In order to prevent our vulnerable service users from catching Flu and Covid 19 as we approach the winter period we would like to encourage all families to maintain good hand hygiene.

Evidence shows that hands are the biggest transmitters of unwanted microorganisms.

Here are some top tips we think may help:

• Hand washing before you visit relatives

• Using hand gel prior to entering the home

• Ensuring to wash hands after sneezing or coughing

• Washing hand thoroughly prior to preparing and eating food

Remember hand washing with soap and water is the best way to remove germs.

Keep safe
