Research into NHS

From the NHS website I have found the correct way to wash hands properly

“Social hand washing should take at least 15 seconds:Wet hands under running warm water.Dispense one dose

of soap into cupped hands.Rub hands palm to palm.Right palm over the back of the other hand with interlaced

fingers and vice versa.to palm with fingers interlaced.Back of fingers to opposing palms with fingers

interlocked.Rotational rubbing of left thumb clasped in right palm and vice versa.Rotational rubbing, backwards

and forwards with clasped fingers of right hand in left palm and vice versa.Rinse hands with warm water.Dry

thoroughly with paper towel (Rationale 5). Cloth towels must not be used (Rationale 6). Warm air hand dryers

may be used in non-clinical areas (Rationale 7).Turn off taps using a „hands-free‟ technique (eg elbows). Where

this is not possible, the paper towel used to dry the hands can be used to turn off the tap (Rationale 8).Dispose of

the paper towel without re-contaminating hands. Do not touch bin lid with hands (Rationale 9).”

From this I have found out the correct way to wash my hands as to use in the video I will be making. For all this information I shall break it down and use it in my video as more of a user friendly way to get the information across. This is directly from the NHS website so I know that this information is very useful and the NHS is the client for this project so there information will be needed for the video.

This is also a poster from the NHS website that shows the way to wash your hands in the correct

manner, This will not be used in my poster but it is good for research as it explains the best way to

wash your hands in a more simpler form and I shall use this information and make it more simple

and use it in my video.
