Hand Hygiene and Gloves First

Captions available

The idea

Before touching the patient for a blood draw, clean your hands and put on well-fitting nonsterile gloves.

In practice

Use soap and water if your hands are visibly soiled, or alcohol rub if they are not, and let them dry before you glove.

Where people slip

Change gloves and clean your hands between patients, every time.
