National Hand Washing Awareness Week!
For seniors and caregivers, proper hand hygiene isn’t just a habit—it’s one of the most important ways to prevent illness.
As we age, our immune systems naturally weaken, making infections easier to catch and harder to recover from. A simple, consistent handwashing routine can make a huge difference in keeping seniors safe and healthy.
Handwashing helps protect against:
✔️ Colds & flu
✔️ Respiratory infections
✔️ Stomach bugs
✔️ The spread of germs during caregiving tasks
Let’s work together to promote health, hygiene, and peace of mind this week—and every week.
