A hand hygiene compliance monitoring system includes a method and computer program product for performing sanitation compliance monitoring including receiving sanitation compliance data. The sanitation compliance data includes a zone identifier corresponding to a first device in a zone and an entity identifier corresponding to a second device attached to a mobile entity in the zone. The zone is defined by an area over which the first device and the second device communicate via one-way or two-way communication. It is determined whether the entity is compliant with a sanitation protocol associated with the zone, and a database is updated with results of the determining.

1. A system for performing sanitation compliance monitoring, the system comprising: a first device in communication with a database;one or more second devices in communication with the database;a target zone defined by a first area over which a mobile device worn by a health care worker and the first device communicate; andone or more sanitation zones each defined by a second area over which the mobile device worn by the health care worker and one of the second devices communicate, wherein (a) at least one of the one or more sanitation zones is an approved sanitation zone for the target zone, (b) compliance with a sanitation protocol associated with the target zone is based at least in part on use of the approved sanitation zone by the health care worker, and (c) use of a sanitation zone other than the approved sanitation zone is not in compliance with the sanitation protocol. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the first device transmits data to the database responsive to a communication between the first device and the mobile device worn by the health care worker, and the second device transmits data to the database responsive to a communication between the second device and the mobile device worn by the health care worker. 3. The system of claim 2, wherein the data transmitted by the first device includes a unique identifier associated with the first device, a unique identifier associated with the mobile device, and a time stamp. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein the target zone is a contamination zone. 5. The system of claim 1, wherein the target zone is an aseptic zone. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein a sensor suite is located in the sanitation zone and the sensor suite is in communication with the second device. 7. A method for performing sanitation compliance monitoring, the method comprising: receiving a notification at a circuit in a mobile entity identification (ID) tag associated with a healthcare worker that a zone ID tag has been detected, the zone ID tag corresponding to a target zone and having a unique zone identifier, wherein (a) the target zone is associated with at least one approved sanitation zone, (b) compliance with a sanitation protocol associated with the target zone is based at least in part on use of the approved sanitation zone by the health care worker, and (c) use of a sanitation zone other than the approved sanitation zone is not in compliance with the sanitation protocol;determining, in response to the receiving and based on information stored in a database on the mobile entity ID tag, if the healthcare worker is in compliance with the sanitation protocol associated with the target zone; andin response to the determining, providing a communication, by the mobile entity ID tag indicating the results of the determining. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein the communication is provided to one of a zone ID tag or a synchronization station. 9. The method of claim 7, wherein the communication is provided via a user interface of the mobile entity ID tag. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein providing the communication via the user interface comprises signaling using an audio display, a visual display, or a haptic alert. 11. The method of claim 7, wherein the mobile entity ID tag includes a radio frequency identifier (RFID) reader and the zone ID tag is an RFID tag. 12. The method of claim 7, wherein the notification that the zone ID tag has been detected is generated in response to the RFID reader detecting the zone ID tag. 13. The method of claim 7, wherein the mobile entity ID tag is worn by the healthcare worker. 14. A method for performing sanitation compliance monitoring, the method comprising: receiving a notification at a circuit in a mobile entity identification (ID) tag associated with a healthcare worker that a zone ID tag has been detected, the zone ID tag corresponding to a target zone and having a unique zone identifier;determining whether the target zone is an active target zone or an inactive target zone based at least in part on the notification;in response to determining that the target zone is an active target zone, storing, in a database on the mobile entity ID tag, the unique zone identifier corresponding to the zone ID tag;in response to determining that the target zone is an inactive target zone, not storing the unique zone identifier corresponding to the zone ID tag in the database; and periodically transmitting contents of the database to a central computer, wherein (a) the target zone is associated with at least one approved sanitation zone, (b) compliance with a sanitation protocol associated with the target zone is based at least in part on use of the approved sanitation zone by the health care worker, and (c) use of a sanitation zone other than the approved sanitation zone is not in compliance with the sanitation protocol. 15. The method of claim 14, wherein an active target zone is a target zone associated with a location that has an aseptic purpose or with a location that contains a source of contamination. 16. The method of claim 14, wherein an inactive target zone is a target zone associated with a location that is not currently being used for an aseptic purpose or a location that does not contain a source of contamination. 17. The method of claim 14, in response to determining that target zone is an active target zone, identifying a sanitation protocol associated with the target zone. 18. The method of claim 17, further comprising: after identifying the sanitation protocol associated with the target zone, determining whether the healthcare worker is in compliance with the sanitation protocol;and storing an indication of the result of the determination of whether the healthcare worker is in compliance with the sanitation protocol in the database. 19. The method of claim 18, wherein determining whether the healthcare worker is compliant with the sanitation protocol comprises verifying that the healthcare worker has satisfied a criteria of the sanitation protocol within a predetermined period of time. 20. The method of claim 19, wherein the criteria comprises using a sanitization zone that is approved for the target zone.
