1. Ask your health team questions about: 

• Whether they have washed their hands. Staff should always wash their hands in front of you. If you did not see them you can remind them.
• Preventing infection in any tubes you may have had inserted such as a cannula (thin tube in a blood vessel) or catheter (tube inserted into your bladder). 
• How to prepare your skin for surgery to reduce your risk of infection.  
• Preventing infection in any wounds you may have from injury or surgery. 

2. Wash your hands

Even if your hands look clean they can still be carrying germs. It is very important that you wash your hands regularly with the alcohol rub or soap and water and particularly:

• Before you eat
• Before touching your eyes, nose, or mouth
• Before and after changing wound dressings or bandages
• After using the toilet, bedpan or bottle
