Results: the use of liquid soap (p=0.939), alcohol-based hand gel (p=0.939), collective use towel (p=0.939), disposable towels (p=0.939), higher frequency after going to the bathroom (p<0.000) and in health institutions (p<0.000) were verified. Nurses were presented the highest hand hygiene rates (p<0.000). Prevalent hygiene after visiting the patient (p<0.000) or viral outbreaks (p<0.000). Hand hygiene education provided by family (p=0.253) and caregivers (p=0.024). Conclusion: the main practices comprised hand hygiene after using the toilet and after contact with dirt or sick people.
