Medical Assistant Prep / Unit 20 MAS 480 short lesson, about 20 seconds
Disinfect, Then Let It Dry
Captions available
The idea
Clean the site with a seventy percent alcohol swab for about thirty seconds, then let it dry completely, about thirty seconds more.
In practice
Work from the center of the site outward; letting the alcohol dry gives it time to work and keeps it from stinging.
Where people slip
Do not touch the cleaned site again; if you do, clean it again.
