The four-year grant will enable researchers to undertake the “Keep It Clean for Kids” Project, a study assessing hand hygiene at three New York-area facilities that care for children with complex health conditions and disabilities.
A 2011 study conducted by Columbia in partnership with DebMed, a hand hygiene technology company, revealed low rates of hand hygiene compliance across various pediatric long-term care facilities. Building on that, the KICK program study will incorporate the DebMed group monitoring system to provide real time data and feedback to staff about their hand hygiene performance.
