Handwashing
33% of neonatal deaths in India are caused by infections. Proper handwashing is one of the most effective ways to protect both mothers and newborn babies from harmful infections.
Caregivers should wash their hands frequently, especially during situations when germs are more likely to spread.
Follow the recommended 11 steps of handwashing to ensure complete hygiene and protection from infections.
If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer containing at least 70% alcohol. It helps reduce the number of germs on hands quickly.
