The HyGeen handchecker…it actually shows you whether they washed them properly or not by a scan of their hand! The best part being it would activate a green light to assure you when they arrive that they have sanitized recently.

The health-care worker squirts sanitizer gel or soap into his or her hand before passing it under a wall-mounted sensor. A wireless signal from a badge worn by the worker activates a green light on the hand-washing sensor. When the worker enters a patient room, a monitor near the bed detects the status of the badge, and flashes green if the person has clean hands. If the person has not washed, or too much time has passed between washing and approaching the patient, the badge will give a gentle “reminder” vibration.
