Objectives: Hand hygiene among healthcare workers is crucial as their hands can transmit microbes between patients and the environment, leading to hospital-acquired infections (HAIs). HAIs are significant challenges in healthcare facilities, with rates of 5% in Europe and 5.7% to 19.1% in low- and middle-income countries.
