What is a personal hygiene survey template?
A personal hygiene survey template is a specialised tool used to systematically collect data on specific personal care routines and behaviours from a defined group.
Organisations focused on health promotion, public safety or community wellbeing can leverage this template to shape effective wellness initiatives. It strategically enquires about key habits, including handwashing frequency, bathing routines, toothbrushing and more.
Why send a personal hygiene survey?
Sending this survey delivers actionable insights for a range of professional environments:
| Audience | Key benefit and use case |
| Healthcare/Public Health | Identify patient needs and educational gaps regarding personal care practices. Use the data (e.g. frequency of handwashing, bathing and toothbrushing) to tailor health outreach and interventions. |
| Social Services/Non-profits | Assess the resource needs of vulnerable populations, such as those experiencing homelessness or financial limitations, to better provide essential personal care resources and support. |
| Employers/Educators | Inform and structure wellness programmes or hygiene education campaigns designed to reduce the spread of illness and promote a healthier environment in the workplace or school. |
Personal hygiene survey questions to ask
This template focuses on core hygiene practices, gathering quantitative insights through these four essential survey questions:
- In a typical day, how many times do you wash your hands?
- How many days in a typical week do you brush your teeth?
- How many days in a typical week do you take a shower or have a bath?
- How many days in a typical week do you use an antibacterial hand sanitiser?
To start benefiting from these valuable insights, you can create a survey using the personal hygiene survey template by signing up or logging in to SurveyMonkey. The template will be available when you begin creating your survey.
