good practice guidelines: hygiene
- Many people prefer to wash themselves in running water, so showers should be made available where possible. If this is not possible, a basin and a supply of fresh water must be offered.
- Many faiths require ablutions to be performed before prayer. Some patients may need help with this, and staff should also have access to a suitable area where they can perform their own ablutions.
- Many ethnic groups will wish to wash their hands and face before and after eating.
- Some groups prefer to wash with water after using a lavatory rather than using toilet paper, which they consider unhygienic. A small amount of water should be provided for such washing. It is preferable that individual toilet facilities have a water supply that can be used in private. Patients who use a bedpan will also need a basin of water to wash with.
- Sikhs may need help washing their hair, which must be kept long, uncut, clean and combed free of tangles at all times.

The professional baseball team from Montreal, Washington Nationals came into picture as Montreal Expos in 1969. In 2005, it was shifted to Washington and renamed as Washington Nationals. At the time of its emergence, it joined the Major League Baseball's National League. Although 'the Nats' never got a chance to play in the World Series, it has the will and talent for that. Nationals won the League Championship in 1981 and presently they are once again on the rise. If you are a crazy baseball fan, then you must not miss out the Washington Nationals Tickets for the upcoming matches.
