As well as being #IDM2024 international day of the midwife it is World Hand Hygiene Day #WorldHandHygieneDay midwives would be the first to say how important this is. We know hand hygiene saves lives & critically reduces healthcare acquired infections. This day and everyday at home, at work & in clinical settings - clean hands. It’s not just for a pandemic. #handhygiene when you meet a healthcare worker ask ‘have you washed your hands’ @HSELive @roinnslainte @DonnellyStephen

Such a stark reminder of the sad impact of measles through the eyes of Roald Dahl on the loss of his daughter Olivia #measles
The saddest story Roald Dahl ever wrote- on the death of his daughter Olivia from measles. This is a deadly, highly infectious disease- if you haven’t had your child appropriately vaccinated, please do so. We must not go backwards #VaccinesWork

We are so fortunate in our country to have so much access to a variety of hand hygiene methods, we need to use them at every opportunity of transmission risk #infectionprevention #WorldHandHygieneDay2023 #AntimicrobialResistance
It’s #WorldHandHygieneDay! 🧼👐 Clean hands are critical in keeping patients and #HealthWorkers safe, yet only 29% of healthcare facilities in #Africa have basic sanitation services. Access to safe water, sanitation & hygiene prevents drug resistance infections, saving lives.
