In home health care setting (P) do hand hygiene practices (I) compared to no hand hygiene practices (C), prevent transmission of infection (O) reduce the spread of Infections within 30 Days since the Start of the Project (T)?
Evidence-based solution
A hand-washing project was formulated in response to the increased number of household-related infections. In the past few months, there has been an increased number of Covid-19 cases, common colds, and influenza. The target population for this project was 20 households, with an average of 4 people per family (Kramer, 2020). Consequently, a similar control population was established to compare the outcome of this project experiment. The target population was provided with hand washing sanitizers and soaps and encouraged to wash their hands severally after handling any contaminated materials (Damilare, 2020). Alternatively, the control population received no hand-washing materials as they were supposed to offer a comparison vantage for the control population.

Nursing intervention
The hand-washing project is an evidence-based practice that reduces the number of infections in the family setting and improves the quality of health care practices. Evidence-based practices enable health care providers to develop data-backed resolutions that integrate current research studies and clinical expertise (Kramer, 2020). Evidence-based practice (EBM) incorporates the patient’s preference, practitioner’s clinical expertise, and external evidence in generating an appropriate medical decision (Damilare, 2020). in implementing evidence-based practice, the medical practitioner must understand his data, evaluate his sources, develop patient-centered goals and choose several personal preferences to work with. In this project, the data was on the number of cases witnessed both in the target population and the control population and the inference of the target population’s outcome (Kramer, 2020). The resource of this data was the outcome results of both populations. The project aimed to minimize the number of infections in the home setting by providing hand-washing antiseptics and encouraging cleanliness in the household.
Patient care
This hand-washing project was conducted as a nursing intervention to prevent the spread of infections and analyze the impact of proper healthcare-related interventions. The family members in each homestead were encouraged to observe proper hand hygiene by washing their hands habitually with soap and water and utilizing antiseptic wash in curbing the infections (Kramer, 2020). The project was to be conducted for 30 days, after which the patients were tested, and the results tabulated against the control population outcomes.

Health care agency
Health care agencies and facilities should assist the families living in low living standards by providing hand-washing soaps and antiseptics in a joint effort to reduce the number of infections like Covid-19, colds, and influence complications (Damilare, 2020). Proper clean care assistance to the affected areas plays an essential role in maintaining healthy conditions in most households. This reduces the prevalence of diseases in a population and reduces the number of hygiene-related deaths in children and other family members.

Nursing practice

The results of the hand-washing project indicated fewer infections in the target population compared to the alternative control population used. The findings of the test determined this rests on the patient population. The target population had fewer infections as most of the infection’s conduits were controlled by the proper hygiene maintained in these homesteads (Damilare, 2020). Therefore, it was conclusive that hand-washing antiseptics and the maintenance of good hand hygiene reduce infections in the home setting. Hand-washing with antiseptics and soap removes and kills germs from hands. This prevents infections as humans tend to constantly touch their mouth, nose, and eyes, leading to infections as the germs get to the body through these body parts.
