Question 1 of 5
A nurse is removing personal protective equipment (PPE) after giving direct care to a client who requires isolation. Which of the following PPE items should the nurse remove first?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Gloves. Gloves should be removed first when removing PPE to prevent potential contamination of other items. By removing gloves first, the nurse reduces the risk of transferring any pathogens to the face or clothing. Removing gloves also allows for better dexterity and control when removing the subsequent PPE items. Removing the face shield, gown, or mask first could lead to contamination of the hands if done incorrectly. Removing gloves last could result in transferring pathogens to other PPE items or surfaces.
Therefore, removing gloves first is crucial for infection control and preventing the spread of infectious agents.
