Where should you remove most PPE after finishing care in an isolation room?
- A.At the nurses' station after you finish your charting
- B.Inside or just at the doorway of the room, before walking the hall
- C.In the hallway outside several other residents' rooms
- D.In the clean supply room so waste bins are nearby
Correct answer
B. Inside or just at the doorway of the room, before walking the hall
Why
PPE comes off where the contamination is, so germs are not carried down the hall. Removing it at the station, other rooms, or clean areas spreads contamination to shared spaces.
