What if nursing school student hand hygiene failed 70 percent of the time? What if 1/3 of handrub dispensers failed to deliver the needed amount? Unfortunately, studies have found both to be the case.

Come on the hand hygiene journey with Tamás Haidegger, co-founder of HandInScan. We discuss the new International Organization for Standardization ISO 23447 that is being developed to address hand hygiene training, compliance benchmarking, performance/feedback, and facility requirements for healthcare settings, including gel dispenser functionality.

Tamás is a wealth of information. He brings his AI experience to healthcare with The Semmelweis Scanner™.
