[aammaall1980]

you not suppose to shake your hands just like you did at the beginning of the video + remove your watch and your ring for better hand washing...

[AZMTI]

@aammaall1980 Both good points, Thanks.

[MegaSimplebeauty]

Aunty,remove your watch, rings etc first.I realise everyone has a different sequence of handwashing,I guess my skills book is the best illustration.Thanks for the video.

It's ridiculous to me that different states have different standards.

[AZMTI]

@urborg74 I agree.

[fatuma0909]

here in pennsylvania washing hands isn't correct

[AZMTI]

@fatuma0909: Here in Arizona it is...

[guitarexpert11]

yo yo yo the other videos of you are removed?

[AZMTI]

@guitarexpert11 Yes, they are only available to our students and those who purchase the training videos through our eLearning Portal.

I can't believe how much water you are wasting :( it's sad

[AZMTI]

@eej2121 The State Board of Nursing requires us to do it this way and to use soap water for a certain amount of time.

I recently scrubbed in for a surgery and the surgeons taught me something completely opposite from what you did in this video. They said you want the fingertips to be the cleanest part so you rinse with the tips of your fingers pointed up and higher than your wrist. Why do you rinse in a way that your wrist stays cleaner than your hand?

[AZMTI]

@richse3 Thanks for the input. We would probably use a different technique as well prepping for surgery.

[killerklowns84]

I was curious as to why you changed the videos? Now, you cant view the training videos where it went step by step.

[AZMTI]

@killerklowns84 Our training videos became very popular with our competition here in Arizona. We want our students to have a benefit to coming here and so the videos are now accessible to our students and those who would like to pay to use them.

in cali ur supposed to use paper towel to turn on the nob, and clean finger nails, and also pat paper towel dry from the waist to the fingernails

[AZMTI]

@peachynat21

Thanks, good to know.

[rasnickk]

i thought this was great till the end.. she said... your wrist is dirty n ur tips are clean but then when she dried them she just kinda used what ever part of the paper towel.. here u can not recontaminate never ever ever.. it always has to be a clean side of the paper towl.. like they said u cant use the wet side.

[AZMTI]

@rasnickk

Thanks for the feedback. Different states have different requirements

and I can assure you that here in AZ all requirements for handwashing

have been covered in this video. Be sure to follow your state's requirements

when completing your certification. Ty

[Streetslogic]

very good, presentation. Only thing i was thought different was that you never use the same side of the paper towel twice.

[AZMTI]

@Streetslogic

I haven't heard that before. Here in Arizona that is not taken into consideration

for state board testing. Thanks for your comment.
