iScrub for your dirty hands

iScrub is a free application for Infection Control Professionals who wish to monitor hand hygiene compliance without the time-consuming and error-prone use of clipboards and transcription. Simply tell iScrub where you are, what type of person you are observing, what opportunity for hand hygiene you observe, and whether or not the healthcare worker being observed complied. When you are finished observing, simply go to Change Settings and make sure you have a valid e-mail address in the To: field, and go to Sync Observations to e-mail a spreadsheet to yourself.

iScrub is brought to you by The Computational Epidemiology group at the University of Iowa http://compepi.cs.uiowa.edu/
