Highly communicable diseases have elevated easily accessible hand hygiene stations from a nice-to-have to an essential amenity in every space. Hand sanitizer stations now need to be thought of as permanent fixtures, not owner provided consumables. This course aims to educate the participants on applicable regulations, recommendations, and best practices with regard to designing hand sanitizing fixtures into architectural spaces.
