Service point design

We'd save a lot of time and money disinfecting facility block door handles and there'd be a lot less illnesses about if  people were more responsible with their personal hygiene.

agreed. After 30+ years in the food industry, washing hands is second nature, but it amazes me the number of people that use public toilets & leave without washing their hands.

What amuses me is the amount of people I see rinsing out their cassettes a zillion times, poking the hose into that cassette then handling that hose without gloves onundecided

Done that for years! However I do make sure I then wash my hands very thoroughly once finished. You obviously try and avoid direct contact with the business end of the hose but there is bound to be contamination. The trouble with gloves is that unless you also wash hands after removing the gloves you are just as likely to have contaminated hands? 

With regards to toilet blocks and public toilets generally it is my view that with all such facilities you should be able to enter and leave without needing to open external doors. A bit pointless washing your hands and then opening a door which is contaminated with who knows what!

In regard to sites, perhaps a basin on the outside would be a good idea.

+1👍🏻, the best habits to have is-don’t bite your nails or lick you fingers👍🏻. No one will ever change those with lax habits but we can help ourselves😊

Some of that anti bac squirty stuff (there must be a colossal mountain of it worldwide...)

 I can't believe members are making such a fuss.  I like the hose attachment and, of course, always wash my hands after emptying it. As someone said, changing a nappy is far worse.

it's not the hose that people have a problem with, it's the stupid anti-syphon devise that invariably soaks you as it only needs a very slight restriction/kink in the hose for it to spray water everywhere.
