Use lots of soap and warm water, and wash all over your hands. Rinse and dry your hands after. You can use our alcohol rub if you are in a hurry. You should wash your hands: after you use the washroom before, during, and after you make a snack or a meal before you eat after handling animals or their waste before and after touching your child when your hands look dirty after you sneeze or cough before you enter your child's room (if your child is an inpatient) and again before you leave Infection control We ask visitors and family members NOT to come into the health centre if they have cold or flu symptoms such as cough, runny nose, vomiting or fever Was Someone A Star? At Sunny Hill, we like to thank people who go the extra mile so we created our Stars board - located on the second-floor wall just outside the inpatient unit. Was someone a star? Let us know! Email us the person's name, when and what he or she did, and why it was important to you, and we'll put his or her name and your comment up on the board. Smoke-Free Sunny Hill is proud to offer a smoke-free environment. Smoking is not allowed in the building or on the grounds, even in your car. This is for the better health of everyone. If you want to kick the habit, there are many resources that can help you quit smoking. Scent-Free Sunny Hill is also scent free.
