Answer:
Step
STEP 1: Wet your hands using clean, running water when available.
Reason
Germs can collect in standing water.
STEP 2: Lather the front and back of hands, between fingers, and under fingernails with Safeguard™ soap.
Friction helps lift dirt, grease, and microbes from skin.
STEP 3: Scrub hands together for at least 20 seconds.
More germs are removed the longer you scrub. If your kids get impatient, teach them to recite the ABCs twice to reach the 20-second mark.
STEP 4: Rinse hands under clean, running water.
Dirt, grease, and microbes—including infectious disease-causing germs—are carried away from skin, which can help minimize skin irritation.
STEP 5: Dry hands completely with a clean towel, or air dry.
Germs can be transferred more easily between wet hands.
