Welcome to the Hand Hygiene Resource Center. The HHRC's mission is to advance the quality of patient care and reduce infection by improving hand hygiene practices in healthcare settings. |
|
| Two million people each year become ill as a result of a hospital-acquired infection. Proper hand hygiene is critical to the prevention of these infections - which contribute to the death of nearly 90,000 hospital patients per year and $4.5 billion in medical expenses. | ||
