Effect of varying the number and location of alcohol-based hand rub dispensers on usage in a general inpatient medical unit.

Benjamin P Chan1, Karen Homa, Kathryn B Kirkland.   

Abstract

We sequentially increased the number of wall-mounted alcohol-based hand rub dispensers in a small medical unit to evaluate effects on hand hygiene performance. Above a certain point, addition of more dispensers did not increase hand hygiene frequency, which appeared to be influenced more by location than by total number of dispensers.
