SAVE LIVES: Clean Your Hands - WHO's global annual campaign

Five steps to 5 May 2012 - What's YOUR plan?

Our call to action for you for next 5 May is to:

Create your action plan based on your facility's results using the WHO Hand Hygiene Self-Assessment Framework. WHO prepared Template Action Plans for you, to facilitate the development of your action plan, whether your Framework results are inadequate/basic, intermediate or advanced/leadership. You can also refer to the more detailed Action Plan included in Part III of the WHO Guide to Implementation.
