Training Modules

The hand hygiene reviewer training module is an interactive, self-paced learning tool that covers information on key principles and scenarios about hand hygiene reviews and the Clean Hands System. The sections within the module are designed to be worked through in consecutive order and can be retaken, as needed.

Identify your method(s) of data collection (i.e., iPad and/or Paper Tool). If you are planning to only use one method of data collection, work through the appropriate section. If you are planning to use both methods, please complete all sections of the training module.
