  2) Ask the unit manager to be present to document responses of both parties.
  3) Call a meeting of all NAPs and stress hand washing to the entire group.
  4) Keep a record of the NAP's actions and save them for her annual formal review.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
