Encouraging and explaining proper hand-washing procedures with signs and pamphlets.

Reason: that is direct patient education aimed at reducing pathogen transmission. The others are either staff training (sharps), environmental/safety modifications (handrails), or medication labeling (color-coded bottles), not patient education to prevent infection.
