Visitors will be able to measure their parameters for example: the saturation of hemoglobin with oxygen, measuring the heart rate, blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol. In addition, they will be able to observe fingerprints on different media before and after disinfection of hands. This way the effectiveness of performed hand hygiene will be illustrated. We will also show visitors “fingerprints” of the coins, cell phones, keys on different media under the microscope with the aim of raising awareness about the importance of hand hygiene after using everyday devices, wich are full of different bacteria. Visitors will be able to observe under the microscope slides of human organs and tissues (muscle, skin, bone, eye, aorta, kidneys, lungs, reproductive cells) and also smear of their blood. Additionally they will be able to participate in the quiz, where it will be possible to answer questions about personal hygiene and a healthy lifestyle with help of computer (http://www.socrative.com/). Those with the highest number of points will also receive a small prize (for example, hand sanitizer, toothbrush, etc.).
