At Providence, NICU staffs are to wash their hands for 2 minutes prior to entering the unit and they will need to do a 15 sec hand wash every time they return from another unit. After 6 hours of working in the NICU, staff members are to wash their hands for 2 minutes again. The purpose of this research is about handwashing in the NICU and whether the 2 minute handwashing is good up to 6 hours or less.

All children are different in their unique way. The goal of this assignment was to observe different children in an uninterrupted environment. Although all the children observed were the same age, they all acted differently during their observation. The differences in the way we react to different situations are what make us human.

Some children react better to things like praise from a teacher or being able to be creative in the activities that they are participating in.
