Understand the goal: The aim is to reduce microbial contamination effectively through proper handwashing technique.
Step 1: Wet your hands with clean, running water to prepare the skin for soap application and to help loosen dirt and microbes.
Step 2: Apply an adequate amount of soap to your wet hands to create a lather that can trap and remove microbes.
Step 3: Scrub all surfaces of your hands, including the backs, between fingers, and under nails, for at least 20 seconds to ensure thorough removal of microbes.
Step 4: Rinse your hands thoroughly under clean, running water to wash away the loosened dirt, microbes, and soap residue.
Step 5: Dry your hands using a clean towel or air dry them to prevent recontamination from shared or dirty surfaces.
