Post-session videos were available on tablets for review. Visual reminders, such as screensavers and digital posters, reinforced learning. Smart sanitizer dispensers with seven-step lights and a 20-second countdown were installed at five key sites, RFID-linked to staff badges for automatic tracking. Monthly performance data were shared via bulletin boards and LINE, with SMS feedback to top and bottom performers. Daily audio reminders played at 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., and high performers were recognized in monthly meetings.", 'armGroupLabels': ['Experimental group']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'city': 'Kaohsiung City', 'country': 'Taiwan', 'facility': 'Kaohsiung Nursing Home', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 22.61626, 'lon': 120.31333}}, {'city': 'Pingtung City', 'country': 'Taiwan', 'facility': 'Pingtung Nursing Home', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 22.67135, 'lon': 120.48814}}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO', 'description': 'for personal privacy reason'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Kaohsiung Medical University Chung-Ho Memorial Hospital', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
