手部衛生是預防感染最簡單、最有效的方法。醫療照護相關感染往往透過醫護人員的手部接觸而傳播，落實「洗手五時機」能顯著切斷病原體的交叉污染鏈。戴手套不能取代洗手，無菌技術僅限於侵入性處置，而洗手是日常照護的基本要求。
Hand hygiene is the single most effective method for preventing the transmission of healthcare-associated infections. While sterile technique is reserved for invasive procedures and gloves do not replace the need for washing hands, consistent hand cleaning before and after client contact significantly reduces cross-contamination risks.
