I am guessing that sweat is not a contaminant. I do not know this.

Get a dwarf bloody (from fighting, not from walking through blood pools), and watch him to see if he uses soap.

Or, disable your soap QS and wait a year and see if the dwarfs start leaving soap at the water sources.

Maybe the rain is washing your dwarfs...

Excellent posts on cisterns in this thread.

But how do I designate an area for dwarves to wash themselves? Do I just designate a well as a watersource and have soap nearby?

Yes, water a water source should be sufficient. They'll pick up soap (and drop it after use, as with goblets). I don't stockpile soap, so I guess they take it from the soapery.

Yeah they run and grab soap from wherever it may be and then head to a water source/bloody patch of floor.

I usually just tell the hospital to stock exorbitant amounts, then leave the rest wherever.
