Beyond Technology: How High-Performing Hospitals Turn Hand Hygiene Programs into ROI

Hand hygiene programs are widely recognized as essential to reducing healthcare-associated infections, but not all programs deliver the same results. Too often, hospitals invest in technology without an accompanying strategy to drive staff adoption, limiting both clinical impact and return on investment.

In this webinar, Kerry Brock and JoAnne Scalise from HID Healthcare RTLS will explore why hospitals that actively nurture adoption of hand hygiene programs consistently outperform those that simply “buy and deploy.” You’ll hear directly from Hackensack Meridian Health who has successfully embedded hand hygiene into daily workflows and culture, sharing practical approaches for driving engagement, accountability, and sustained behavior change.

We’ll also examine real-world ROI data from hand hygiene monitoring technology, demonstrating how strong adoption strategies translate into measurable improvements in compliance, infection reduction, and financial performance.

Designed for infection prevention and quality leaders, this session will provide actionable insights to help you move beyond implementation and realize the full value of your hand hygiene program.

 

Attendees will learn how to:

• Build internal strategies that drive lasting hand hygiene adoption
• Align leadership, staff, and data to improve compliance outcomes
• Measure and communicate ROI from hand hygiene investments
• Translate program success into safer care and stronger performance
