I think the topic you have chosen of hand hygiene is fantastic as it is so prominent in hospitals all over the world.I think you poster layout is clear, easy to follow and eye catching; all of which are important factors you needed to consider during the construction process (Clarkson, 2016). I would love it if you included some statistics of why hand hygiene is such a large issue and if you wrote some specific strategies the leadership team can implement to combat hand hygiene.

In terms on the content, you provided information on improving hygiene and the challenges you've encountered. I would liked to see some more in depth content on how you used the strategies and what worked and what didn't. As well as statistics on how the hand hygiene audit, whether it had improved or not, because it is an issue on our unit at times as well. However, I liked the layout of the flow in terms of the leadership strategies to improve compliance as it provides an easy to read and understanding of the individual, group and organization level of how the leaders dealt with these areas (Barr & Dowding, 2016).

The distribution of words is also well arranged that is appealing for people to read. The central shadow picture very well explains the topic even for a visual person who doesn't like to read. The use of very less technical jargons giving this poster a chance for a layperson to understand, catering a bigger audience.

Being a hand hygiene auditor my self, I had times when faced the organisational cultural barrier in implementing the five moments. Individual factors, such as peer behaviour, perceived control, and attitude is found to be significant predictors of hand hygiene adherence (Pfoh & Engineer, 2013). Patient empowerment and participation in hand hygiene like asking the staff member if they have washed their hands was a big success regarding gaining higher compliance rates but received a lot of ill response from the team members as they felt like being monitored by the patients.

Great work! group 8

I really liked your poster, the topic is very pertinent to daily work. The role of the leader and their approach to leadership can influence the workplace culture (Jacobs, Mannion, Davies, Harrison, Konteh & Washe, 2013). I feel your poster identified the need for a leadership style that can influence a strong group culture by building morale, trust and team involvement (Marchand, Haines III & Dextras-Gauthier, 2013). 
I liked your diagram highlighting successful leadership strategies. My own research into non-compliance by health care professionals with hand hygiene revealed was largely associated with a lack of recognition of the importance of hand hygiene (Buffet-Bataillon, Leray, Poisson, Michelet, Bonnaure-Mallet & Cormier, 2010). This I feel can be combatted with staff education.
Thank you

I enjoyed reading your poster and found it is clear and easy to follow. In my perspective, improving hand hygiene compliance requires effective managers who excel at executing and maintaining the day-to-day efforts. You also need inspirational, visionary leaders who elicit a big-picture perspective. Both leaders and managers are necessary players on any winning team.
 
I agree that applying successful leadership strategies will improve hand hygiene compliance. Leaders have the ability to motivate, communicate, bring people together and empower them. This is particularly important for building strong working relationships and trust across the organisation, which will in turn help increase the compliance to improve the greater good of patient care.

The topic that you choose to highlight in your poster is very important to our daily work. You have distributed the words evenly for the readers to understand easily. However I agree with others that including some statistics in the poster would be a good addition to see if hand hygiene is improving or not as it is such a large issue in the workplace  environment.

Its content is not overwhelming in quantity which helped me to concentrate on the information presented and not get distracted before finishing reading the poster. I particularly liked you emphasis on that leaders don't need to be managers in order to facilitate change in the workplace.

Infection control is such a major factor within nursing and if not followed can lead to others becoming quite ill especially with the elderly and immunocompromised patients. 
I like the use of your graph and background picture which compliments your theory. 
I do like the fact that you do not necessarily need to be a manager or a leader to facilitate the change.

Your poster is elegant, concise and not very difficult to understand. It addresses how a leader motivates his team to maintain sustainable hand hygiene practices which ensures the safety of the patients.  It highlights different ways a leader and a manager functions and also mentions about barriers involvedand addresses ways to improve hand hygiene compliance.
Maintaining proper hygiene measures is very important to prevention spread of infections.
 This  poster particularly caught my attention , as it  focused on  hand hygiene practices which i believe is  very important to ensure safety of the health care professional and the patients alike.  
I agree with you that an effective leadership strategy is essential to improve its compliance.

Kind regards,

I'm sure most of us that work in healthcare can relate to the difficulty in getting clinicians to change their habits with respect to hand hygiene. each quarter across my organisation there are audits done that focus on hand hygiene topics, the results are discussed at meetings and it's often the same areas and staff disciplines that are observed to be failing to meet state benchmarks despite clear evidence that hand hygiene is effective in reducing the spread of infection (certainly the current flu season is great evidence of that!).  
I agree that transformational leadership would be a suitable 
way forward. I liked the way your diagram 
of the hands was like a watermark effect which didn't detract from the message.  Well done Group 8

Great work on peer reviewing everyone. You can see how really useful it is. In terms of the final paper, read through some of the comments as there are some good pointers there although, while a section on statistics might have highlighted the issue in a poster, I don't think it would be useful to include statistics in your final paper. A general statement of the problem supported by the literature will suffice as it is such a relevant and wide-spread issue. In analysing the issue, you might like to consider why it is that hand hygiene is such an elusive issue for health care organisations to effectively address/control? As one of your peers identified, staff do not like feeling as if they are being monitored so what strategies could an effective leader implement to reduce that sense of oppression? Samantha suggested some specific strategies and this is another area for further analysis - why might one strategy be more effective than another - and how would the strategy be implemented to avoid that sense of being monitored? How might patient empowerment and participation in had hygiene be implemented? Stay on topic though, as you might go too far down the organisational culture or motivation path. This is a good topic with a lot of substance for further analysis.

Hand hygiene has always been a big issue anywhere especially in a health organisation. Hand hygiene compliance is very poor, and the main culprits are usually nurses and doctors. Having a poster like this in a workplace is beneficial as it will remind everyone how important hand hygiene is in healthcare. Hand hygiene is a mandatory yearly competency in all hospitals for nurses and other health professionals. In my workplace, hand hygiene ambassadors go around the department, observing and randomly checking your hands if you have washed it correctly and accurately but I don't think this solves the problem. Maybe it will on that day, but it will get forgotten again by the staff. Everyone working in the workplace should be leaders where we should remind each other to wash our hands properly. I agree with what you said in your poster " Leaders do not need to be in a management position. Everyone can lead this Change."
Well done group 8 for choosing hand hygiene as your topic.
Regards.

Hand hygiene is a basic practice used every day multiple times and barely people know about its implementation. I especially like the logo of your poster and the chart presenting valuable information showing a link with each other. However, this strategy would be more effective if it would have involved staff members in creating awareness among patients collaboratively. (Greenwood & Hinings, 1993)Greenwood, R., & Hinings, C. R.

Even hand hygiene is a topic which never outmoded, but I am impressed the way you highlight the leadership and management role’s difference in your poster. I think this is one of the major issues in planned change for people that sometimes are unable to determine what role of the leader is and what role of the manager is. Because, there is not a straight forward differentiation between management and leadership, and leaders are not always managers and managers are not always powerful leaders (Cox, 2016). Therefore, I think your poster could provide clear demonstration for this issue. Great job guys! 

If anyone interest in this issue, I think Cox’s (2016) article could provide some more details in depth between leadership and management differences.

It is so reader friendly and eyeball catching. Improving Hand Hygiene among healthcare workers is currently the single most effective intervention to reduce the risk of hospital-acquired infections in Australian hospitals. Your work about facilitating change to increase hand hygiene compliance is amazing. Structure are very clear and precise. Well done.

You mentioned  the idea  of contribution from the team members  to enhance compliance with hand hygiene. During the process there was resistance from the organisation and individual. You also mentioned of two leadership styles in your poster that of transactional and transformational . After reading the poster  you also mentioned the strategies to improve hand hygiene . I found all these to be very important. All in all hand hygiene is very important and should be done before and and after contact with consumers.
Well  presented poster,

In many ways, your posters topic was the most visually clear, to me anyway. Just by the use of a simple picture I immediately knew it was about handwashing  and its importance within a healthcare environment.  Your content highlighted the need for compliance based on rationale, the importance of education and staff commitment and reminded the reader of its relevance to infection control.  Your poster is also very relevant to all departments in most organizations, not just healthcare. Another interesting addition was strategies which could be used during change depending on leadership styles, whether transactional or transformational. Also from an ethical perspective you highlighted the moral importance we have to each other in complying to and encouraging this important component of basic hygiene.
Thank you for sharing.]]> 2017-10-02 08:07:19 UTC https://padlet.com/c4lth_fhs/hj6ef1d9hm3r/wish/192882729 Dear DF Group 8 https://padlet.com/c4lth_fhs/hj6ef1d9hm3r/wish/192949922 Your poster is visually enticing and very clear to read to understand.  Hand hygiene compliance and how to improve compliance is always on the agenda of improving patient care.  I really enjoyed the information and clarification of the role the leader and manger have in staff compliance.  
I think some discussion around the effectiveness of role modelling of hand hygiene would have been also valuable. I find that role modelling in hand hygiene by leaders to be particularly valuable with compliance across the multidisciplinary team.
Thank you for the clear and informative poster.

The breakdown of your mark is:
Poster appearance 18/20
Poster Content 52/60
Lovely clear appearance. Well set out. The only negative comment we will make is in the linkage between hand hygiene compliance and the roles of the manager and leader. We could see the message was that transformational leadership was more likely to facilitate hand hygiene but it was not clear why it was necessary to distinguish the manager role with equal weighting to the leadership role. Perhaps instead of the ‘Managers’ section there could have been more about the ethical implications. However, it is a lovely looking poster with a lot of relevant and pertinent content. Why is it so hard to achieve hand hygiene compliance in health care environments, do you think? 
In regard to marks for peer review, those who scored higher on peer review did so because their peer review comments made a scholarly contribution to the poster content and was relevant to leadership issues within a health care environment. Students with higher marks on peer review tended to write comments that were designed to support the improvement of the other group’s work (scholarly contribution) rather than provide general commentary on what they liked about the poster.  Commentary that was brief without strong evidence of constructive feedback did not attract high marks.
