This trial tests if an augmented reality system can improve how health students and hospital staff learn proper handwashing. You'll use the system during one training session and have your handwashing checked before and after.
This trial tests whether ergonomic training (learning better body movements at work) can reduce pain in assistant nurses' necks, shoulders, or backs. It also checks if using a biofeedback device (which helps you sense muscle tension) makes the training more effective.
