Hand Hygiene Practices in Schools
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-34229-0 (ISBN)
Discussing both the challenges that hinder hand hygiene practices and the opportunities available to promote positive behaviours, it is particularly timely since the onset of the global Covid-19 pandemic, where infection could also be passed on through the hands. Drawing on both evidence-based research and successful interventions in specific countries, the book builds to offer a best-practice manual to address this important issue.
This will be ideal reading for public health and community health working in developing regions, as well as those working for NGO’s.
