first of all wet your hands in a clean running water, then applying soap, rub your hands together to make lather, clean their nails, their thumbs, the back of their hands and between their fingers and to keep doing this for atleast 20 seconds, and rinse in clean running water. Then dry the hand with clean cloth or paper towel.

• after using the toilet
• after treating wound or cuts
• before and after being with a sick person
