It’s National Handwashing Awareness Week (December 5–11), a reminder that one of the simplest actions can have the greatest impact on preventing illness and protecting our communities.

Proper handwashing helps reduce the spread of infections, keeps families healthier, and supports safer hospitals and workplaces.

At Prime Healthcare, we encourage everyone to practice safe hand hygiene:
🧼 Wash for at least 20 seconds
💧 Use soap and clean, running water
🤲 Don’t forget the backs of hands, between fingers, and under nails
✨ Use hand sanitizer when soap and water aren’t available

Together, we can reduce the spread of germs and support a healthier community.

Prime Healthcare continues to invest in advanced technology that elevates patient care.

One example is the introduction of the MAMMOMAT B.brilliant mammography system at Monroe Hospital in Bloomington, Indiana, made possible by a generous donation from Gayle Cook. This next-generation technology delivers exceptional clarity through wide-angle 3D imaging with scan times as short as five seconds, supporting earlier and more accurate detection.

Designed with patient comfort in mind, the system features a stationary face shield, curved-edge compression paddles, and automated personalized compression to create a gentler, more supportive screening experience. Faster and more secure image transfer also means patients receive results quickly and confidently.

Across Prime Healthcare, we remain committed to bringing innovative, patient-centered technology to the communities we serve, strengthening our mission of clinical excellence.
