Hand Health

In a season, when germ-giving is the most prominent gift on the market, let us not forget to wash our hands. I’m just as guilty as the next person, but I, just as much as YOU, do not want to get catch any type of sickness.

Make Sure to Wash Hands:

• Before meals.
• After petting animals or picking up their waste.
• After touching a sick person.
• After sneezing into your hands or dealing with any bodily fluids.
• After going to the bathroom (This one should really be a no-brainer. It’s disgusting when you don’t).
• If you aren’t able to get to a restroom, keep a pocket-sized hand sanitizer around for a quick squirt-and-go solution.

Hot Spots for Germs:
Phones: Whether that be with a cord, cordless, or your cell phone. I’m pretty sure you use some type of phone on a daily basis and everyday you touch it there are new germs added.

Door knobs/handles: This one is just squirming with germs because people use this daily to get in and out of offices, rooms, bathrooms, and the like. You never know where everyone elses’ hands have been, so wash your hands frequently!
