Infection Prevention and Control

Infection Control is an entire hospital program offered at One Health Hospital that minimizes the risk of infection for staff, patients and visitors.

The prevention of infections for the newborn infant demands all staff members as well as family members and guests to give close attention to the practices of patient care and follow high-quality health standards. Here is some important advice for both you and your family members to assist in preventing infections.

Hand Hygiene

Washing your hands is one of the primary aspect of hygiene for hand and is something that we all can do to stop infection from spreading. When you are entering the nursery, clean your hands thoroughly using some soap as well as water that are in the dispenser in the sink. Clean all of your hands, including the front and back, as well as between your thumbs and fingers. Make sure that your fingers and the nail bed are spotless. Cleanse your hands a bit above your wrists and then point your hands downwards towards the sink, so that bacteria can drain away into the water. After you begin cleaning your hands keep going for minimum 15 minutes. Cleanse your hands thoroughly as well. Dry your hands thoroughly.

Always wash your hands using alcohol-based hand rubs (or soap, water)

After touching the baby (and between your babies when you have multiple babies.) Be sure to not touch another infant in your nursery.

After touching any part of your body that is prone to lots of germs, such as your mouth, nose hair and head and also after using the bathroom.

If you go away from the nursery for a short break clean your hands each time you return. Be careful not to touch your baby in case you've an open sore or rash on your hands.

Make sure your hands are moisturized after leaving the the baby's area as frequently as you can to avoid irritation of the skin.

Nail polish and artificial nails are not recommended since they can be a source of bacteria and are difficult to keep free of germs.
