hand soaps for healthcare areas

Hi all,

I am currently desperate for some information regarding hand soaps being used in the clinical setting. Are there any guidelines that stipulate what soaps are allowed to be used by Healthcare Workers for instance it must be a hospital grade soap or TGA registered/approved soap for clinical use.

Thanks in advance
