Running Head: WEEK 1 ASSIGNMENT 3 Jolene Hodges
NSG6102- Evaluation of Educational Outcomes in Nursing
Professor Diana Kostrzewski
April 18, 2017 Introduction
In the medical field, it is very crucial that we prevent the spread of all disease through
promoting proper hand hygiene. Nosocomial infections are toxin that already exist in a health
care setting like a hospital or doctor’s office. These infections are the main source of the poor
health conditions that many patients acquire or suffer from in many health care facilities.
Multiple studies have proven that the improper practice of hand washing by the health care
professionals are a huge reason as to why infections are spread from one person to another
(Helder et al. 2010). Chau et al. (2011), conducted a study based on proper hand hygiene in a
health care setting and stated that on 75% of all the participants effectively complied with the
hand hygiene guidelines. It is highly recommended that all health care facilities effectively WEEK 1 ASSIGNMENT 3
reinforce hand washing practices daily to further prevent cross contamination and nosocomial
infections from spreading in the facility. Poor hand hygiene is proven to be one of the biggest
contributing factors to cross contamination, as well as the spread of many serious health
conditions.
This lesson plan will assist students whom are studying to be in the medical field, to
effectively practice and reinforce the prior knowledge and current knowledge on the proper
methods to wash hand to prevent the spread of disease in their practice setting. The goal of
this lesson is to reinforce the students’ knowledge and skills on how to properly wash their
hands in any health care setting. The learning outcomes for this lesson plan are that the
students will be able to know what cross contamination is and aware of its possibility,
students will practice and demonstrate effective hand hygiene techniques based on the CDC’s
(2002) hand washing guidelines, and lastly, the students will be aware of the proper strategies
and methods on how to properly control nosocomial infections. The assessment of this lesson
will be given after teaching the lesson and it will consist of 50 questions; multiple choice,
true or false, and essay questions. Sample test questions: Multiple choice question:
o How long should you scrub your hands together, when washing with
soap and water?
A. Long enough to get the soap off
B. 12 seconds
C. 20 seconds**
D. 2 minutes True or False Question:
o True or False:
Use of artificial nails by healthcare workers poses no risk to the
patients in a health care setting.
**False. The CDC (2002), states that Even after careful hand washing,
germs can live under your fingernails.**
Essay Question:
o List the six steps, in chronological order, on how to properly wash your
hands in a health care setting?

** Step 1: Wet your hands very warm water and then apply soap to
hands. Step 2: Lather your hands with soap by rubbing them together
and make sure to lather the backs of your hands, between your fingers,
under your nails, 2” above the wrist, and up to the elbow. Step 3: Scrub
your hands for at least 20 seconds. Step 4: Rinse your hands under
warm water with hands in a downward position. Step 5: Dry your
hands using a clean towel and throw it away. Step 6: Grab a clean
paper towel to turn of the faucet and throw away the paper towel.**
The Joint Commission (2017), states that the nation patient safety goal for proper
hand hygiene is to prevent infections. For the alternate test method, I will be using a
demonstration. The objective for this demonstration is that the students will be able to
demonstrate proper hand hygiene. In the demonstration, the students will need to wash hands
properly for at least 20 seconds and then dry hand properly. The CDC (2002), states that the
step for proper hand hygiene are as follows: Step 1: Wet your hands very warm water and then apply soap to hands.
Step 2: Lather your hands with soap by rubbing them together and make sure
to lather the backs of your hands, between your fingers, under your nails, 2” above the wrist, and up to the elbow.
Step 3: Scrub your hands for at least 20 seconds.
Step 4: Rinse your hands under warm water with hands in a downward position.
Step 5: Dry your hands using a clean towel and throw it away.
Step 6: Grab a clean paper towel to turn of the faucet and throw away the
paper towel. WEEK 1 ASSIGNMENT 3 Running Head: WEEK 1 ASSIGNMENT 3 5 NSG6102
