PSCCQ took part in the realization of Hand Hygiene Day on May 4, 2023.  This activity was greatly inspired by its theme Save Lives: Accelerate action together. “SAVE LIVES – Clean Your Hands”

The program was spearheaded by the nursing services department headed by Ms. Kahkashan Sana, Nursing Director and Ms. Laila Abed Eddin, Deputy Nursing Director wherein they conveyed their gratitude to everyone who participated and likewise reminded them of the many remarkable importance of hand hygiene.

This is notably one of the many series of activities conducted by the center which aims to teach and implement hand washing to all health practitioners and patients as well as their families. More so, it aims to make sure that this may become a routine behavior that should be practiced at all times to reduce the transmission of infections among patients.

Furthermore, PSCCQ was trying to become a channel for a disease-free environment. They pointed out that washing the hands properly is indeed one of the most important thing and the best healthy practice to prevent and control the spread of many diseases. Good hand hygiene will reduce the risk of things like flu, food poisoning and healthcare associated infections being passed from person to person. Several lectures were given to the center's medical staff and a demonstration on proper handwashing was held to train the health practitioners.
