Hi all,

Would anyone out there know of an internet link that leads to a Windows Media / mpeg type of file that demonstrates correct hand washing techniques. We would like to include something like this in a short power point presentation we are developing on infection control without having to down the 'VCR route'.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

Cheers
FH

Not able to help I'm afraid, but if anyone does have one any chance of a copy? I'm currently installing a HACCP system to cover biosecurity issues (we are poultry breeders so its a good time to hike up the standards while its on people's minds) and such a video could be useful for the employee training elements.

There is a big market for these kind videos -strangling poultry followed by the meticulous washing of the hands. Pass the Cranberry!

Try http://www.nfsmi.org/Inf...ing/wash_hands_video.avi

I haven't seen it, just found it on a quick search, but be warned it is a large download, even by Broadband standards. Also;

http://www.nfsmi.org/Inf...on/handsindex.html#video (for more information and posters etc.

Best wishes

I can't download the one suggested by Ciaran. Keep getting timed out.

The HSE video on visits to open farms may be useful - I'll e-mail it.

Hi,

I came across the following video clip produced by a NHS Trust with the intention of showing the correct handwashing procedure:

http://www.show.scot.nhs...hands/video_handwash.mov

What about the wrists? They call them elbow taps for a reason!

Similarly:

http://www.uams.edu/csc/...on/handWash/handWash.mov

The following is better, but what's that about not rubbing the skin with the paper towel?

http://www.ocipmh.org/ho...video/qt_handwashing.mov

Next is a bit gross, but...

http://www.microbe.org/washlan.mov

Why not just make your own - it's hardly technical with modern video equip and will will have the advantage of showing your staff doing their jobs properly in their own work environment.
