Abstract: A hand sanitizer dispenser having a dispenser mechanism. The device may be microprocessor controlled and may time stamp and log actuations of the dispenser mechanism. Log entries may be associated or correlated with a patient and may be recorded in the patient's electronic medical records. The dispenser may also include an audio component adapted to issue verbal reminders and tonal reminders from a schedule of reminders. The schedule of reminders may be derived from entries in the patient's electronic medical records such as meal times, appointments with specialists, and other triggering events where hygiene may be advantageously practiced.
