title: [Hygiene rules for community nurses].
abstract: Community nurses must respect hygiene measures in order to maintain the health of the home patient. The patient, however, does not always consider him/herself to be ill which requires the nurse to tactfully explain basic hygiene rules. The patient's environment must also be kept scrupulously clean. On this point the nurse has an important role to play in educating the patient and his/her family.
