A method for control of transmission of pathogenic organisms between a carer (of plurality of carers) and a patient (or plurality of patients) during a shift which includes the steps of (1) washing the hands of the carer, after commencement of a shift and prior to contact with the patient, with a first composition which assists in removal from the carer's hands of any anionic species of a kind which reduce the bactericidal efficacy of biocides, and (2) ensuring that no composition containing an anionic surfactant contacts the skin after step (1) and prior the end of the shift. A kit comprising a first composition in combination with a second composition, said compositions being such that the second contains a biocide, and use of the first prior to use of the second conditions the skin of a user against deactivation of the biocide of the second.
