WELL AP Exam WELL-AP Topic 2 Question 9 Discussion

Incorporating touch-free exits in family bathrooms is a strategy that aligns with Feature W08: Hygiene Support, as it minimizes contact with potentially contaminated surfaces, thereby reducing the transmission of microbes. This approach is particularly relevant in family bathrooms, where users, including children, may be more vulnerable to the spread of germs. Touch-free exits, such as sensor-operated doors, contribute to a healthier environment by promoting better hygiene practices within the facility, supporting the WELL Building Standard's emphasis on health and wellness through improved hygiene and reduced risk of disease transmission.
