A monitor implements a protocol for evaluating the sufficiency of a worker's hand washing activity in a desirably sanitary area. After a quantity of cleanser has been dispensed to the worker, data representative of the frequency, amplitude and duration of hand reciprocation by the worker are combined according to a predetermined mathematical proposition to provide a hand cleansing quality indicator. The indicator is then compared to a predetermined threshold level to determine if the protocol has been satisfied. Preferably, the predetermined mathematical proposition includes variable multipliers which can be selected to reflect the importance to the user of the frequency, amplitude and duration components of the proposition and the user can also select the predetermined pass/fail threshold.
For monitoring the quality of hand hygiene practiced by a worker at a cleanser dispenser station, a method comprising the steps of:
For monitoring the quality of hand hygiene practiced by workers demanding dispensing of cleanser from any of at least one cleanser dispensers, each worker transporting a credential uniquely identifiable with its transporting worker, a system comprising:
For increasing a likelihood of hand hygiene of a worker in a desirably sanitary environment, a system comprising:
