Hand Hygiene Training

Proper hand hygiene is considered the single most important method of preventing and controlling infection in healthcare facilities. Based on WHO's 5 moments for Hand Hygiene, our training solution enables you and your staff to train and improve on each of these critical moments – in virtual reality.

Virtual reality for deeper learning

Virtual reality not only makes training fun and engaging, it is also highly effective in driving behavioral change. According to research , people only remember 10% of what we read, 20% of what we hear and 30% of what we see. However, when doing or simulating an action, we remember as much as 90%.
