This National Handwashing Awareness Week, help your family stay healthy by knowing the four principles of hand awareness—simple habits that make a big difference.

Hello,

With cold and flu season in full swing, it’s more important than ever to build healthy habits that keep everyone safe.

The 4 Principles of Hand Awareness are simple but powerful reminders:

  1. Wash your hands when they’re dirty and before eating. 
  2. Don’t cough into your hands.
  3. Don’t sneeze into your hands.
  4. Most importantly, don’t put your fingers in your eyes, nose, or mouth.

Learn about these principles to help prevent the spread of sickness. Hospitals and healthcare workers provide trusted community resources — including health education — that strengthen Americans’ overall health. Check with your local hospital for tools and tips to keep your family healthy this season.
