World Hand Hygiene Day 2025 at Macquarie Hospital

World Hand Hygiene Day 2025, engaging outdoor event hosted by Piccolo Me, bringing staff together for a day of fun, learning, and awareness. The celebration featured a series of interactive games— including putt-putt, shoot-the-ball, hit-the-duck, a claw machine, and an on-the-spot quiz—making hand hygiene education both enjoyable and memorable. Winners received a well-deserved cuppa, and everyone was treated to Krispy Kreme doughnuts, adding a sweet finish to a day that reinforced a critical message: hand hygiene is everyone’s responsibility—gloves or not.
